Is it a QSFP+ 40G breakout DAC cable that you are inserting into one of the QSFP28 100G ports of the M4500 CSM4532?
The portmode command is used to configure QSFP28 interfaces with 1x100G, 1x40G, 4x25G, or 4x10G. If you are using portmode 4x10G here, we may have interop issue with the breakout DAC cable; or with the way the third-party switches handle it on the other end.
Please upgrade the M4500 CSM4532 switch with latest software:
https://www.netgear.com/support/product/m4500-32c#download
Please use the release notes for the method updating the firmware.
With the latest software, you will have the AV User Interface, and it will be easier to produce the Tech Support file (Diagnostics/Support Diagnostics). In the TS file, there are all the show fiber command that will help understand the problem on the port / DAC.

Hi asifshaikh04
You are opening several threads so it doesn't make it easy. I answered these questions in DAC cable between netgear and ubiquiti USW 48 po... - NETGEAR Communities
The portmode 4x10G command is creating 4 new ports. These new ports need to be configured, added to LAG, as any other port. The port numbering is different for them. The tech-support file will help us understand where you are and what to do.
Please the use the Software Administration Manual page 43 to see the port numbering of the 4x10G in your case. I believe you need to configure LAG on these new ports. https://www.netgear.com/support/product/m4500-32c#docs
So your 100G port is detach because it's breakout to four other ports later on. You need to configure the other ports, form LAG etc.
