For PAM4 interfaces or SyncE Jitter testing, specific modules MUST be used. These modules have been tested by Calnex to ensure they fulfil the requirements for functionality and performance needed to enable correct operation and guarantee the integrity of the timing measurements. Use of other modules may result in a failed test or incorrect result. More information regarding PAM4 transceivers can be found: https://calnexsolutions.atlassian.net/l/cp/dchS6Mxk For SyncE Wander and PTP on non-PAM4 interfaces, most modules should work correctly; known exceptions are detailed below. If you have a module that is not recognised, please let us know. |

QSFP-DD | LR8 10km | Coherent (Finisar) | FTCD1323E1PCL | R7 | Use at 400G rate only. |
QSFP-DD | FR8 2km | Coherent (Finisar) | FTCD1333E1PCL | R7 | Use at 400G rate only. |
QSFP-DD | SR8 100m | Coherent (Finisar) | FTCD8613E1PCM | R7 | Use at 400G rate only. |
QSFP-DD | FR4 2km | Coherent (Finisar) | FTCD4313E1PCL | R7 for FTCD4313E1PCL | Use at 400G rate only. FTCD4313E1PCL works for all scenarios. FTCD4313E2PCL works for all standard conformance tests, however some manually configured SyncE single sine frequency/amplitude combinations can cause link-loss. |
QSFP-DD | LR4 10km | Coherent (Finisar) | FTCD4323E2PCL | R11 | Use at 400G rate only. |

Hirose, LTD1302-BH: Module does not support multi-byte read. Supported by Paragon-neo version 01.00 and later
FS, SFP28-25GSR-85: Some of these modules are configured in a way that Paragon-neo does not recognise; others appear to be OK
Coherent (Finisar), FTLX1472M3BCL: These modules support a range of rates from 8.5Gb/s to 11.3Gb/s for Fibre Channel, SDH/SONET and 10GbE. When the CDR is disabled (which Paragon will do under certain circumstances), the module will set the CDR for 8.5Gb/s Fibre Channel and so no link will be able to be established.
