Hi!

I got my hands on an GPON G.984.2 ClassB SFP and want to find a way
to operate it using FreeBSD.

What type of NIC with SFP slots can be recommended for this
exotic use case ?

It's data sheet:

http://www.allnet.de/fileadmin/transfer/products/113608.pdf

It's asymmetric with these specs:

  1490nm continuos mode 2.5 Gbit/s DFB transmitter
  1310nm burst mode 1.25 Gb/s APD receiver

Any hints welcome!
