Have a QM9700 running MLNX-OS 3.11.1004. Split config is enabled, and we have the MMA4Z00-NS breaking out to 2x400G CX7 400G cards with no issue. We now need to add 200G connections of QM8700s with MMA1T00-HS connecting to the MMA4Z00-NS in the 9700 to the mix. It’s temporary until we replace the 8700s. I know the optics can do it functionally, as we do it in Juniper systems, but not having any luck here. How do i configure the port on the 9700 to support this?
Hello,
You need HDR on both ends. See below:

Then how would the MCP7Y40-N002 work? It’s NDR on the 800G end, HDR on the 200G in a CX-7 200G card.
