SFP+ Module NETGEAR AXM762-10000S 10 Gigabit LR

The NETGEAR AXM762-10000S is a 10 Gigabit LR SFP+ transceiver module that provides long-reach LC fiber connectivity for SFP+ interfaces. It supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10,000 Mbit/s and 10GBASE-LR optical technology for single-mode fiber links up to 10,000 meters. The module is compact and lightweight (0.0192 kg), designed to fit into 10 GE SFP+ slots including the two built-in SFP+ interfaces of GSM72xxPS / GSM73xxS and the SFP+ adapter module AX743.

Advantages

The AXM762-10000S offers long-distance 10 Gigabit connectivity over single-mode LC fiber, enabling extended links without additional media converters. Its SFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with equipment that accepts 10 GE SFP+ transceivers, while the low weight and small size simplify installation and handling. The module supports standard 10GBASE-LR parameters for predictable performance in point-to-point fiber links.

Suitable for

• Extending 10 Gigabit network links over single-mode fiber up to 10 km
• Use in switches or modules with 10 GE SFP+ interfaces (e.g., GSM72xxPS, GSM73xxS, AX743)
• Data center uplinks and inter-rack fiber connections

How to use

Insert the AXM762-10000S into a compatible 10 GE SFP+ slot until it clicks into place, then connect LC single-mode fiber patch cords to the module's LC duplex port. Ensure both ends of the fiber link use matching 10GBASE-LR transceivers and that the network devices are configured for 10 Gb/s operation. Verify link status through the host device's interface and monitor for proper optical levels and connectivity.

Usage recommendations

Handle the transceiver by the housing, avoid touching the optical interfaces, and keep protective dust caps on the LC connectors when not in use. Use single-mode LC fiber for LR links and adhere to equipment compatibility lists (e.g., GSM72xxPS, GSM73xxS, AX743) to ensure proper operation.
