Notes:
TFAULT is an open collector/drain output, which should be pulled up with a 4.7k-10k
Ohms resistor on the host board if intended for use. Pull up voltage should be between
2.0V to Vcc + 0.3V. A high output indicates a transmitter fault caused by either the TX
bias current or the TX output power exceeding the preset alarm thresholds. A low
output indicates normal operation. In the low state, the output is pulled to <0.8V.
Laser output disabled on TDIS >2.0V or open, enabled on TDIS <0.8V
Should be pulled up with 4.7kΩ-10kΩ on host board to a voltage between 2.0V and
3.6V. MOD_ABS pulls line low to indicate module is plugged in.
LOS is open collector output. Should be pulled up with 4.7kΩ-10kΩ on host board to a
voltage between 2.0V and 3.6V. Logic 0 indicates normal operation; logic 1 indicates
loss of signal.

RJ-45 Console and I²C interfaces are integrated in the same connector. Due to that,
connecting any cable other than the Mellanox supplied console cable may cause an
I²Chang.
Using uncertified cables may damage the I²C interface. Refer to theReplacement Parts
