Description: Provides optical transceiver (SFP/XFP) monitoring on H3C/3Com devices, exposing transmit/receive power, temperature, voltage, and vendor identification data.
Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.
What Is A3COM-HUAWEI-TRANSCEIVER-INFO-MIB?
A3COM-HUAWEI-TRANSCEIVER-INFO-MIB is a joint 3Com/Huawei (H3C) enterprise MIB that exposes pluggable optical transceiver (SFP/XFP) diagnostic information on interface ports. Per its description, it displays information about the transceiver installed on an interface, which in this technology area conventionally includes optical transmit/receive power, temperature, supply voltage, laser bias current, and vendor/part identification data. This is squarely a hardware-health MIB: it lets an operator detect a degrading optical link (falling receive power, rising temperature) before it causes a fiber outage, and confirm the correct/compatible transceiver vendor part is installed. No explicit dependency on other MIBs is indicated, though it parallels the industry-standard digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) conventions used in SFF-8472. It is deployed on H3C/3Com switches and routers with SFP/SFP+/XFP optical interface slots, typically in campus or data-center fiber uplinks. Engineers can download the A3COM-HUAWEI-TRANSCEIVER-INFO-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM-HUAWEI-TRANSCEIVER-INFO-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.
Supported Devices
- H3C/3Com switch or router with SFP/XFP optical ports
Monitoring Examples
Although no sample object names were provided, based on the stated purpose an administrator would poll per-port transceiver entries to read optical transmit power, receive power, temperature, and voltage, watching for receive power drifting toward the sensitivity floor as an early warning of a degrading fiber link or dirty connector. Vendor/serial identification fields would be checked to confirm only approved optics are installed. Specific table/column names cannot be honestly cited since none were supplied.
What Can Be Monitored
- optical transmit power
- optical receive power
- transceiver temperature
- supply voltage
- transceiver vendor/part identification
