+Currently, there are ony two main GPON chipsets vendors:
-- Realtek
+- Realtek manufactures these chipsets:
* RTL9601B
* RTL9601C1/RTL9601CI (HSGMII)
* RTL9601D (HSGMII)
-- Lantiq
+- Lantiq used to manufacture these chipsets:
* PEB98035 (HSGMII)
* PEB98036

-HSGMII chipsets are relatively recent, dating from 2020, and are used in many ONTs. Realtek offers an official SDK, Luna SDK, which offers very good performance in queue management, bitterly not used by all devices based on these chipsets.

-The lantiq company no longer exists, it was bought out by intel and intel made a splash, at the time lantiq was at the forefront on the GPON and xDSL chipset side.
-The GPON part of Lantiq ended up in `/dev/null`, the XGS-PON part ended up in MaxLinear and the whole Wi-Fi part ended up in Intel.
+Unfortunately Lantiq no longer exists as it has been bought out and dismembered by Intel. This purchase was a huge deal as at the time Lantiq was at the forefront of the GPON and xDSL chipset market.
+The GPON part of Lantiq ended up in `/dev/null`, while the XGS-PON sector ended up in the hands of MaxLinear and the whole Wi-Fi part remained in the hands Intel itself.
The last produced batches of these SFPs date back to 2020/2021. All OEMs are currently migrating to Realtek.
