As a best practice, use H3C transceiver modules and cables for the switch. H3C transceiver
modules and cables are subject to change over time. For the most up-to-date list of H3C transceiver
modules and cables, contact H3C Support or marketing staff. For information about the
specifications and views of H3C transceiver modules and cables, see
