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 which line card model that you are using, you can use either QSFP-DD, QSFP28, or QSFP+
transceivers. Some transceivers work with fiber-optic cables that you attach to the transceivers and other
transceivers work with pre-attached copper cables. You must install a transceiver in the port before installing
the fiber-optic cable in the transceiver.
