The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

The QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optical modules enable wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) functionality in the router.
These optical modules are DWDM C-band (196.1 THz to 191.3 THz) tunable optical modules. They can be used in both transponder
and muxponder modes.
Cisco IOS XR software creates optics and coherent DSP controllers to configure and monitor the performance of the QDD-400G-ZR-S
and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optical modules. Optics controllers are used to configure and monitor optical parameters, such as frequency,
chromatic dispersion, transmitted output power, modulation, and so on. Coherent DSP controllers are used to monitor network
performance parameters like pre- and post-forward error correction (FEC) bit-error rate (pre-FEC BER, post-FEC BER), error
corrected bits (EC-BITS), and so on. Forward error correction (FEC) is configured using optical controllers and monitored
using coherent DSP controllers.
The QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optical modules support traffic configuration and firmware download. The Cisco IOS XR
software collects performance monitoring data and alarms using versatile DOM (VDM).
Due to more power consumption by the QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optical modules, the Cisco IOS XR software operates
the fans at an higher speed to cool these optical modules.
The QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optical module configuration is divided into the following categories:
Traffic configuration – Comprises configuring DAC rate, muxponder mode, modulation, and FEC parameters. Applicable for optics
controllers:
Performance monitoring (PM) – Enables or disables performance monitoring in optical modules. You can also configure PM parameters
that comprise signal power, chromatic dispersion, optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR), and differential group delay (DGD).
Applicable for optics controllers and coherent DSP controllers:
Alarms threshold configuration – Configures thresholds for monitoring alarms that include optical signal-to-noise ratio (OSNR),
differential group delay (DGD), chromatic dispersion (cd high and low), and so on. Applicable for optics controllers:
The following table contains the possible traffic configuration values for the QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optical modules,
in the transponder and muxponder mode:

Configuring Frequency
You can configure frequency on optics controllers. You can select any C band frequency between the range 196.1 to 191.3 THz,
in both ITU and NON-ITU channels.
Note
The 100MHz-grid keyword accepts only frequency values as user input. The 50GHz-grid keyword accepts frequency, ITU-channel,
or wavelength values as user input. The Cisco IOS XR software then caculates the frequency for a given wavelength or ITU-channel.
Frequency Configuration Example
The following example shows how to configure frequency on the optics controller:

Configuring Muxponder Mode
By default, the Cisco IOS XR software configures the QDD-400G-ZR-S and QDD-400G-ZRP-S optical modules in the 400G transponder
mode.
Using the breakoutmuxponder mode command, you can configure muxponder mode on optics controllers. Based on the muxponder mode, you can choose the modulation.
Muxponder mode options available for QDD-400G-ZR-S are:
4x100
Muxponder mode options available for QDD-400G-ZRP-S are:
4x100
3x100
2x100
Note
Release 7.3.15 supports only 4x100 muxponder mode.
See the following tables for the modulation values, based on the muxponder mode:
Using the no breakoutmuxponder mode command, you can switch from the muxponder mode to the transponder mode, on optics controllers.
Muxponder Mode Configuration Example
The following example shows how to configure muxponder mode on the optics controller:
Router#config
Router(config)#controller optics 0/0/0/13
Router(config-Optics)#breakout 4x100

Configuring Modulation
You can configure modulation on optics controllers. Based on the muxponder mode, you can choose the modulation.
Note
The system accepts any modulation value that is entered. However, if the modulation value is outside the supported range,
it is not configured on the optical module. Instead, the optical module is auto-configured with a valid modulation value.
To view this value, use the show controller opticsR/S/I/P command.
See the following tables for the supported modulation values:
Use the show controller opticsR/S/I/P command to verify the modulation value of the optical module.

Configuring FEC
You can configure forward error correction (FEC) only on optics controllers. You can modify FEC only on the QDD-400G-ZRP-S
optical module. FEC is a feature that is used for controlling errors during data transmission. This feature works by adding
data redundancy to the transmitted message using an algorithm. This redundancy allows the receiver to detect and correct a
limited number of errors occurring anywhere in the message, instead of having to ask the transmitter to resend the message.

Configuring Performance Monitoring
Performance monitoring (PM) parameters are used by service providers to gather, store, set thresholds for, and report performance
data for early detection of problems. The user can retrieve both current and historical PM counters for the various controllers
in 30-second, 15-minute, and 24-hour intervals.
Performance monitoring can be configured on optics controllers and coherent DSP controllers.
To stop performance monitoring on optics or coherent DSP controllers, use the perf-mon disable keyword.
Configuring PM Parameters
The performance monitorning (PM) threshold and the threshold crossing alert (TCA) reporting status can be configured for optics
controllers and coherent DSP controllers:
