How to use

Insert the QSFP-100G-C3M module into a compatible QSFP+ port on a switch, router, or server NIC while the host device is powered on or off as supported by the equipment. Connect the appropriate multimode duplex fiber patch cable between transceiver ports on network devices, ensuring proper orientation and connector type. Use the host device's management interface to verify link status, speed, and diagnostics; hot-pluggable capability allows replacement or addition without extended downtime. Follow standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions during handling and remove protective dust caps before insertion.

Recommendations

Use high-quality multimode fiber and properly rated patch cords to achieve the specified short-reach distances and maintain signal performance. Verify compatibility with the host device firmware and optics support lists to ensure full functionality. For optimal operation, keep transceiver temperature within the equipment's recommended operating range and perform periodic link testing and monitoring.
