1200Mbaud bitrate, but should be driven with 1000BASE-X on the host
side.
Seems like somebody could make a nice side line writing SFP EEPROM
validation tools. There obviously are none in widespread use!

Definitely. Here's an example of another module:

This, of course, _really_ messes up our current EEPROM parsing code.
I can only think that this SFP module is very very large externally
to support all those different connectors for all those capabilities!
I think it's safe to assume all SFP GPON modules are broken in one
way or another, and sadly no manufacturer cares one iota what they
stuff into their EEPROM. So far, every GPON module I've heard of has
had some problem or another. This is a really sad state of affairs.
