Which module? This is all very vague. Some of the Marvell 10G PHYs
have an EEPROM to boot from, for example. Would that count? Or are you
talking about the SFP 'EEPROM', which is not actually an EEPROM, in
that it is not Electrically Erasable, not is it a ROM, since things
like temperature changes with time.

What is the generic name of SFP, SFP+ QSFP, SFF?
