> 10Gbe copper requires fast switching and more shielding
That depends greatly on your cable length. A 50ft run (about the distance commonly found from switch to device in an average home) will _easily_ operate trouble free and full speed over Cat5e. It’s only necessary to use Cat6/Cat6A/Cat7 when you are going over long cable lengths (most reputable sources say ~125ft is the max for reliable 10GbE over Cat5e, adding an additional ~50ft for Cat6, and up to ~330ft for 6a/7)
