Viewing Huawei Switch Optical Ports

Use the display transceiver command to view detailed optical port information, including type, link status, and transmit/receive power.

Viewing Optical Module Information

To check the optical module on a Huawei switch, you can use the following commands:

  • All ports: display transceiver – shows basic information for all optical ports, including transceiver type, connector type, wavelength, transfer distance, and vendor details .
  • Specific port: display transceiver interface – displays information for a single optical port .
  • Verbose output: Add the verbose parameter to view detailed diagnostic data such as temperature, voltage, bias current, and transmit/receive power . Example:

    CodeCopydisplay interface 10ge 1/0/1 transceiver verbose

Checking Port Link Status and Traffic

  • Use display interface to see port rate, link status (UP/DOWN), and traffic statistics .
  • display interface brief provides a summary of all ports, including link status and basic traffic counters .

Diagnostic Commands

  • display transceiver diagnosis interface – retrieves Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) information for troubleshooting optical modules, including transmit and receive power levels, which helps identify faulty modules or low signal issues .

Certified vs Non-Certified Modules

Huawei recommends using Huawei-certified optical modules. Non-certified modules may cause installation issues, abnormal data bus behavior, or even damage the switch interface due to nonstandard sizes or electrical defects . Always verify module compatibility before installation.

Summary

By combining these commands, you can:

  • Monitor real-time optical port performance
  • Verify transceiver specifications and health
  • Troubleshoot link or signal issues
  • Ensure proper operation with certified modules

These tools are essential for maintaining reliable optical connectivity and diagnosing potential faults in Huawei switch networks .
