Assuming their upstream prices are too high to do so, I'd expect market pressure to pull the retail price down to around the Aquantia price in relatively little time.
The operating temperature seems reasonable enough if we're talking about "what ambient conditions can this chip be run in" and not "what temperature is the chip itself allowed to reach." Comparing to enterprise gear, a Nexus 9000 lists 0-40C as the acceptable range.

It'd be more interesting if it was price competitive. Hopefully, increased competition in this space will push prices down in the futureAdditionalPylons - Tuesday, November 13, 2018 - link

Yes, that's ambient air temp, not component temp. The interior of the system where the NIC is installed should remain below 55C.BillyONeal - Tuesday, November 13, 2018 - link
Should read "Buffalo rebrands Aquantia AQN-107 (or AQC-107)"BillyONeal - Tuesday, November 13, 2018 - link
