Question about AVM FTTH Router FRITZ!Box 5530, with AON SFP

I saw in a review that two SFP modules are included. Is that also the case here? Or do I have to order the respective ones separately? I think they were called AON and GPON, so blue and green or something like that :)

Helpful answer

That's what I thought too, especially since it can be written on the packaging (possibly only on the used/refurbished units?). As far as I could find out after painstaking research, the 5530 is only sold with one SFP module in Switzerland, namely the AON. Finding out which technology the respective network provider uses is the next big challenge; transparency is scarce here as well. I was lucky to find a very nice and competent employee in the second level support of the (small) provider who answered my questions clearly. The AON module supplied fitted, so I didn't complain further about the GPON module "missing" here.

I also thought that the router could do all standards. I then got the AON version (green), and also only this one module is in the packaging. The XGSPon (?) standard, e.g. from Swisscom, does not work with the router, and - as far as I know - only one Zyxel (third-party) router is certified by Swisscom.
So now I have to use the Swisscom router...
