I really like the Myricom’s because they are supported by everything,

As for switches, you could in theory get 10GbaseT SPF+ gbics (I think
they make such a thing) so you don’t need new cards.
Unfortunately they do not make 10GBase-T SPF+ modules. The power
requirement exceeds the SFP+ specs.
I was looking at getting SFP+ 10G switches and using the twinaxial
cabling for in-rack networking. Then LACP a few ports and do fiber out
of the cabinet.
(Yes, you will need to buy new NICs for the 12 servers. They are not
that expensive... anymore...)
