When 4 ports 10 GbE/UTA cards?

Coming back to the hardware universe I see that there aren't yet 4 ports adapter in the 10 GbE or the UTA2 families.

The only 4 ports available cards are FCP/1 GbE/SAS.

 

This can  be a very big limit answering to public call for tender where maybe an 8020 is a good choice but they ask for a number of ports that is more than the configurable ones.

A lot of storage vendors have on their portfolio expansion cards with 4 ports for 10 GbE or CNA.

Is there a plan for NetApp to have these too?

 

Regards
