XGS-PON is becoming available from my service providers and I have started to look for hardware to facilitate migration to these services.

While I can find hardware with combinations of 2.5Gbit/s copper with SPF+, I am yet to find much in the SOHO market with 10Gbit/s copper with SPF+.

Does anyone have any recommendations for hardware that will run OPNsense?

I would have a look at the Mikrotik catalogue. Their products are "keenly priced" and capable.

What about the Official HW? DEC

I did look, but there do not appear to be any with 10Gbit/s copper ports. So the only option would be 4 x SFP+

Copper SFP+ modules run very hot.
