How to view optical switch parameters

If you know the model or type of an optical module, you can view the section "Pluggable Modules for Interfaces" in the Hardware Description to look up parameters of the optical module, including the center wavelength, transmission distance, fiber types supported, receive optical. When optical modules operate on a switch, it is usually necessary to read the module's internal information to understand its working status—such as connection status and real-time metrics like optical power and temperature. The Cisco Small Business Series Switches allow you to plug in a Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) transceiver in their optical modules to connect fiber optic cables. This guide provides complete, step-by-step CLI commands to view module type, DOM/DDM diagnostic data, vendor details, and compatibility information, fully compliant with Cisco IOS and IOS-XE command standards.
