It depends on the type and model of the device that you are using to plug in the 100G QSFP transceivers. Different devices may have different power budgets and limitations for their QSFP ports. You should always check the device specifications and compatibility matrix before plugging in any transceiver module.
Some possible scenarios that may happen if you plug in 100G QSFP transceivers that consume greater than 3.5W are:
- The device may not recognize or support the transceiver module, and display an error message or warning.
- The device may recognize and support the transceiver module, but limit its performance or functionality due to insufficient power supply.
- The device may overheat or damage its components due to excessive power consumption by the transceiver module.
