Connect Interface Ports
You can connect optical interface ports on line cards with other devices for network connectivity.
Connect a Fiber-Optic Port to the Network
Depending on the line card model that you are using, you can use either QSFP-DD or QSFP28 transceivers.
Some transceivers work with fiber-optic cables that you attach to the transceivers and other transceivers work
with pre-attached copper cables.
Caution
Disconnect Optical Ports from the Network
When you need to remove fiber-optic transceivers, you must first remove the fiber-optic cables from the
transceiver before you remove the transceiver from the port.
Removing and installing a transceiver can shorten its useful life. Do not remove and insert transceivers more
than it is absolutely necessary. We recommended that you disconnect cables before installing or removing
transceivers to prevent damage to the cable or transceiver.
