Huawei enables optical module port

Huawei enables optical module port

To enable a Huawei optical module port, first physically install the module correctly, then configure the port to optical mode using CLI commands.Step 1: Physical Installation of the Optical ModuleWear an ESD wrist strap or gloves to prevent static damage to the module and switch .Remove the dust plug from the optical port and keep it for future use .Insert the optical module into the port with the gold fingers facing down, ensuring it clicks into place. Do not force the module; if it does not fit, turn it over and try again .Verify installation by gently pulling the module. If it does not come out, it is installed correctly .Check fiber compatibility: Ensure single-mode fibers are used with single-mode modules and multimode fibers with multimode modules .Step 2: Configure the Port to Optical ModeHuawei combo ports default to electrical mode, so you must switch them to optical mode:For GE Combo Ports:Enter interface view: system-view → interface Switch to optical mode: combo enable fiberTo revert to electrical mode: undo combo enable fiberApply the same configuration on the peer device .For 10GE/2.5GE Combo Ports:Enter global configuration view: system-viewSwitch to 10GE optical mode: port combination-mode 10GE interface To restore default 2.5GE electrical mode: undo port combination-mode 10GE interface Note: This operation will clear current port configurations .Step 3: Verify the Optical ModuleCheck the port status: display interface brief to ensure the interface is up.Verify transceiver information: display transceiver interface verbose to confirm wavelength, received, and transmitted optical power are within normal ranges .Perform a loopback test if the port does not activate, connecting the fiber jumper to the same module to check for abnormal conditions .Step 4: TroubleshootingEnsure the optical module matches the port speed (e.g., do not use a 10G module on a 1G port), .Confirm the port is not administratively down: display interface should not show Administratively DOWN .Check for non-Huawei-certified transceiver warnings and ensure the module is supported . Following these steps ensures that the Huawei optical module port is physically installed, configured for optical mode, and verified for proper operation.
