odd-numbered ports can be configured as 100 G, if required.

Ports per module
Provides 10 G connectivity on QSFP ports by converting a 40 G/100
G QSFP port into an SFP/SFP+ port.
The line card supports the following configurations using a QSA
adapter in a port group:
• Configuring odd-numbered (top) and even-numbered (bottom)
ports with the QSA adapter.
• Configuring odd-numbered ports with the QSA adapter and
even-numbered ports with 40 G QSFP optics.
If you configure an odd-numbered port with 40 G QSFP
