What kind of cables do you need to connect to your 10Gb switch/router? Do you need glassfiber?

You can run 10GbE over twister pair copper.

I run 10g-base-t over cat5e. I think the standard says cat6, but the nics can't read the markings on the cable :p

It depends on the length of the cable and the general level of EMF in the environment. Cat5 can be plenty fine, or not, depending on those factors.
