how to display power of optical module

Let’s take Huawei’s S3328TP-SI switch as an example. This switch has 2 combo ports, which can be changed either to optical or electrical mode.

You have 3 options in combo-port command:

  • auto – selects the interface type automatically
  • copper – uses the electrical interface
  • fiber – uses the optical interface.

As you can see in the above output, port mode is COMBO AUTO, SFP module has been inserted and current work mode is automatically chosen as FIBER.
