AXM762-C

Overview

10GBase-LR SFP+ Long Reach Fiber Module for Netgear Managed Switches
The Netgear ProSafe AXM762-10000S is a 10GBase-LR SFP+ transceiver designed to deliver reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over long distances using single mode fiber. It is engineered for use with 9/125um single mode fiber cabling and is compatible with Netgear M5300, M7100, and M7300 series managed switches. The module supports hot-swappable installation, allowing seamless upgrades and maintenance without network downtime, and is also supported on select Smart and Plus switch models equipped with SFP+ ports.

Description

The AXM762-10000S SFP+ module provides high-performance long reach optical networking for enterprise environments requiring stable and extended-distance data transmission. It enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over distances of up to 10 km (6.2 miles), making it suitable for campus networks, inter-building links, and high-speed backbone connections.

Built for flexibility and ease of deployment, this transceiver uses an LC duplex connector and integrates directly into compatible SFP+ interfaces without additional configuration. It is designed to maintain consistent throughput and signal integrity across long-distance single mode fiber links, supporting modern high-bandwidth applications such as virtualization, data center interconnects, and large-scale network aggregation.
