Netgear AXM761-10000S 10GBASE-SR SFP+ Transceiver
Overview
The Netgear AXM761-10000S is a high-performance 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver designed for short-reach data transmission over multi-mode fiber (MMF). As enterprise networks transition from 1G to 10G to accommodate increasing bandwidth demands, the AXM761 serves as a critical link in campus backbones and data center top-of-rack deployments. It operates at a nominal 850nm wavelength using a duplex LC connector, supporting distances up to 300 meters on OM3 fiber and up to 550 meters on OM4 fiber.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the AXM761-10000S compatible with third-party switches?
While the AXM761 follows MSA standards, it is specifically optimized and tested for Netgear M4200, M4300, M4500, and ProSafe series switches. Using it with Netgear hardware ensures full support and guaranteed performance.
What is the maximum distance supported by this module?
The reach depends on the fiber grade: it supports up to 33m on OM1, 82m on OM2, 300m on OM3, and up to 550m on OM4 multi-mode fiber.
Does this module support Digital Optical Monitoring (DOM)?
Yes, the AXM761-10000S includes DOM support, allowing network administrators to monitor real-time parameters such as optical TX/RX power, temperature, and supply voltage.
Can I install this module while the switch is running?
Yes, the AXM761 is hot-swappable, meaning it can be plugged into or removed from an active SFP+ port without needing to reboot the switch or interrupt other network traffic.
