Verifying and diagnosing transceiver modules

At present, there are three types of commonly used transceivers, as shown in
further divided into optical transceivers and electrical transceivers based on transmission medium.
Table 19 Commonly used transceivers
Transceiver type
SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
SFP+ (Enhanced 8.5 and 10 Gigabit
Small Form-factor Pluggable)
XFP (10-Gigabit small Form-factor
Pluggable)
Verifying transceiver modules
You can verify the genuineness of a transceiver module in the following ways:
Display the key parameters of a transceiver module, including its transceiver type, connector type,
•
central wavelength of the transmit laser, transfer distance and vendor name.
Display its electronic label. The electronic label is a profile of the transceiver module and contains
•
the permanent configuration including the serial number, manufacturing date, and vendor name.
The data is written to the storage component during debugging or testing.
To verify transceiver modules, execute the following command in any view:
6 ERROR Power 2 is absent.
6 ERROR The board in slot 10 is faulty.
3 WARNING The temperature of sensor 3 exceeds the lower limit.
