My experience of the HH5A is that it didn't appear to support G.Inp as it synced at a lower speed than either a HH5B or a Huawei HG612.

According to Openreach it does for downstream.  I think the lower speeds is probably a result of the lantiq chipset.   The others use BCM chipsets.
Ive never used a HH5A, but when using a TDW-9980 which has the same VRX268 chip my speeds can be 5~8Mbps lower...  and that's despite me being on an ECI cab.

Says sagemcom on it

Yes, the HH5A is manufactured by Sagemcom - link

The HomeHub 5A contains a Lantiq VRX268 chipset (Same as the ECI modem) and manufactured by Sagemcom.
