Fiber optic transceiver module BlueOptics AXLM762-BO QSFP 10000 m

The BlueOptics AXLM762-BO QSFP 10000 m is a fiber optic transceiver module designed for high-speed single-mode links up to 10,000 meters. It implements the QSFP form factor and supports 40GBASE-LR4 applications over LC duplex connections. The module uses CWDM on transmitter and receiver lanes and is built in a lightweight aluminium housing weighing approximately 20 g, suitable for installation in compatible switches, routers and storage systems that accept QSFP 40GBASE-LR4 modules.

Advantages

The module is compatible with platforms that accept the original Netgear AXLM762 40GBASE-LR4 QSFP and is tested for interoperability and software adaptation. Manufactured to MSA standards, it uses high-quality optical lasers and integrated circuits from established component suppliers to provide stable optical transmission and extended service life. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) is available when supported by host hardware, enabling real-time monitoring of voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature.

Suitable for

• 40 Gb/s Ethernet links over single-mode fiber up to 10 km
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet and SDH/SONET high-speed connections
• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems
• Data center uplinks and aggregation links requiring QSFP 40GBASE-LR4 form factor

• Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with MSA SFF-8472 (dependent on host support)

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AXLM762-BO into a compatible QSFP slot following the host equipment vendor instructions. Use LC duplex single-mode patch cords to connect to the remote transceiver or patch panel; ensure fiber polarity and LC connector seating are correct. Verify that the host platform supports 40GBASE-LR4 QSFP modules and, if DDM/DOM is required, that the host firmware or software provides access to diagnostic registers. After insertion, confirm link status and speed through the switch or router management interface and perform basic optical power and connectivity checks.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, use single-mode fiber of appropriate attenuation and high-quality LC duplex patch cords, keep connectors clean, and follow the host vendor compatibility guidelines. If monitoring is needed, enable DDM/DOM on supported hardware to track real-time diagnostic parameters and facilitate remote troubleshooting.
