SFP status netgear AV line / M4250

Is it possible to read out the SFP data like received light power in the netgear M4250 AV line switches? this to determine the fiber connection between the 2 switches?

Ideal we would like to ad an SBC like raspberry to show the values automatically after start up in an display.

    Welcome to the Netgear Community!

     

    Of course, like on all Managed M4300/M4250/M4350 Series - check out these commands for SFP transceiver as below.

     

    show fiber-ports optics
    show fiber-ports optics-diag
    show fiber-ports optics-eeprom
    show fiber-ports optics-info

     

    I suggest you to check more details information from our CLI command reference document before you try above comments.

        Thank you, schumaku 

         

        The Engage Controller (www.netgear.com/engage) also display all fiber modules with their technical data (Send and Receive DB) in the monitoring section (fiber modules). It might be even easier!
