-  * Due to Linux kernel limitations, only a single speed can be advertised via EEPROM for XG-PON/XGS-PON. Multi-speed combinations (e.g. 2.5/5Gbps, 5/10Gbps, 2.5/5/10Gbps) are not achievable through EEPROM editing alone+  * Due to Linux kernel limitations, only a single speed can be advertised via EEPROM for XG-PON/XGS-PON. Multi-rate combinations (e.g. 2.5/5Gbps, 5/10Gbps, 2.5/5/10Gbps) are not achievable through EEPROM editing alone((Linux's SFP bus driver derives supported speeds solely from EEPROM compliance codes, which only allows a single speed to be declared via the compliance code bytes. Multi-rate support requires either a kernel quirk (hardcoded per vendor/part number in ''sfp.c''), a PHY-emulating module that negotiates speeds independently, or a NIC driver that bypasses the generic SFP bus logic entirely.))
