 From what I can see, the current hfcsusb.h [1] lists two additional 
devices:

- Aceex USB ISDN TA (0x0742, 0x2009)
- X-Tensions USB ISDN TA XC-525 (0x1ae7, 0x0525)

The latest addition was in 2012 [2].

According to [3], those use a different chipset and are not supported by 
the HFC-S USB driver.

I'm using several miniVigor on a daily basis, but it's been a while 
since I bought the last ones (it was probably in 2011). I remember that 
I looked at the pictures, and avoided the transparent/translucent ones.


Best regards,
