There are two types of alternative cards (not starting a discussion on who
made it first!), one called AMI-IA92 (Si3021/Si3012/MD3200) with a FCC
approval and one called AMI-IE92 (Si3021/Si3014/MD3200) with a R&TTE
approval.

The AMI-IE92 have additional components on board for setting AC real/complex
termination as well as DC termination (Japan Mode/FCC Mode/CTR21 Mode).

Both card types are compatible but the wcfxo driver does not utilise the
additional settings on the AMI-IE92 card.
