Verifying and diagnosing transceiver modules

At present, there are three types of commonly used transceivers, as shown in

Table 21

. They can be

further divided into optical transceivers and electrical transceivers based on transmission medium.

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.
