Agreed - because I think SFP brings with it a whole host of issues that describing the media facing port would be error prone - and to do it accurately, we'd need a table of quirks to fix lots of broken modules. For example, many SFP modules with RJ45 connectors describe themselves as having a LC connector! -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
