Description: This represents the port Forward Error Correction Mode. FEC feature is only applicable to 10G/16G platforms.
What is swConnUnitPortFECMode?
This value reports whether Forward Error Correction is enabled, disabled, unknown, or unsupported on this port, a feature that only applies to 10G/16G platforms. Admins use this to confirm FEC is actually turned on where it's needed to correct bit errors on higher-speed, longer, or noisier links. A 16G port reporting notsupported(4) tells an admin that hardware or firmware on that platform doesn't offer FEC, so link error correction must rely on other means.
