The OpenGear stuff in this repo has model names that are like CM7132-2-DAC-US, while the actual model name of these devices are CM7132-2-DAC (label on device, and that is what they call themselves). If you would order them, you do need to specify either -US or -EU, which will result in a different cable in your box but with an identical device. So the -US/-EU are order codes and not model names. I think the cable type should be modeled in netbox using dcim.cables and not with a dcim.device_type :-)
The reason I came across this, is that we have some of these devices, which are ordered as -EU and will not be matched. I originally wanted to submit a PR to add the -EU types, but I think the model names should to be corrected instead.
The original seems to be submitted by @ryanmerolle, what's your opinion on this?

Opengear model names were (probably) copied from order codes, which
include the power cord (US, EU) to include in the box. The actual models
don't include the -EU/-US suffix, so this commit makes the model names
canonical.
