Hi Fil/Arnd,
Cortina-Access Cortina-Access’s primary product offerings are PON and L3 gateway solutions.
At that time, Cortina Systems’ primary products focused on high-speed SERDES/PHY.
And we are no longer involved in the support of any CSxxxx-related products.
I'll recommend "cortina-access,caxxxx" for all Cortina-access's product.

Thanks,
Jason
