ethtool enp1s0f0

...
        Port: FIBRE
        PHYAD: 0
        Transceiver: external(present) <---The transceiver is present.
        Auto-negotiation: on
        Supports Wake-on: d
...

        Port: FIBRE
        PHYAD: 0
        Transceiver: external(absent) <---The transceiver is absent
        Auto-negotiation: on
        Supports Wake-on: d
