No optical power on the switch s optical port
How to check optical power on a Cisco switch? Use show interfaces transceiver detail for Catalyst switches. Even if an interface appears up, degraded Tx/Rx levels can cause intermittent flapping, packet loss, or err-disabled states. Hello, from your output I can't see which type of QSFP you have installed, your QFX discovers. 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. Have you ever experienced an unexpected network outage due to the failure of an SFP/SFP+ optical transceiver? Network outages can bring your ability to communicate and work to a halt, and your IT team will likely be frantically looking for a solution. Refer to the Low Rx power reported on Brocade switch port due to faulty cable - NetApp Knowledge Base If the Issue persists even.

Does the switch s optical port need an optical module
Optical ports on switches typically accommodate optical modules for transmitting data via fiber optic cables. In situations where there's a shortage of Ethernet ports, some users may insert Ethernet port modules into optical ports to connect with copper cables for data transmission. The following figure shows the optical modules supported by the S5720-12TP-LI-AC.

Which port is the optical port on the switch
The SFP port is commonly found on Gigabit Ethernet switches and is primarily used for fiber optic device connections or for uplinking 1G switches to aggregation/core layer devices, providing higher-bandwidth links. Optical ports on switches typically accommodate optical modules for transmitting data via fiber optic cables. A standard Ethernet cable (Cat5/5e/6/6a cable) is often used when connecting two RJ45 ports on Gigabit switches. RJ45 ports serve access-layer copper connections; SFP/SFP+ ports enable flexible 1G/10G uplinks; SFP28 delivers 25G for modern data centers; QSFP+ and QSFP28 support high-density 40G/100G spine–leaf. Learn what an SFP port (SFP slot or SFP interface) is, how it works on a switch, and its role in networking.
