DAC assemblies must not be used with Paragon-neo. Paragon-neo is not designed for use with DACs, which means that such links are unlikely to work and there is a possibility of damaging your instrument. Such damage would not be covered under CSS. |

When using the PAM4 200G interfaces, 200G modules must be used, when using the PAM4 400G interfaces, 400G modules must be used. PAM4 400G modules can look like they operate correctly at 200G, however they report that they are 400G capable (not 200G) in this case Neo will generate a warning that the modules are "not rate conformant". |
PAM4
Release 7 introduces 400G and 50G PAM4 optical interfaces. To achieve optimal timing performance with this release, specific optical modules as listed below MUST be used:
