I may be wrong in this however when I have seen this question before I was told that the power needs for pushing 10Gbps over copper cables was greater than what was available over SFP+<br>

I've seen similar discussions. From what I could find, phys are quickly coming down in power towards the 1.5W it needs to be for an SFP+, so this might become viable in the not too distant future.<br></blockquote><div>
<br></div><div>Alas, no, you won't just yet. The next-generation 10GBASE-T PHYs at 28nm are still not within 1.5W power envelope of SFP+, nor is the die size necessary for them something that fits inside a SFP+.</div>
