      Before I buy the adapters X520-T2 from Intel, I want to know if I can connect these back to back using normal Cat6A cable?

      Anyone with experience?

        You mean direct connection between with just a cable. I don't know from experience, but a quick search online brought confirmation that it supports auto crossover, so a standard cable between the 2 should work. This falls in line with almost all modern NICs.
