Netgear compatible ACM762 Description
EdgeOptic's ACM762 compatible is a Netgear-coded QSFP28 transceiver built on our 100G-QSFP28-10 hardware platform with Netgear-recognised EEPROM programmed at the factory. ACM762 is Netgear's base part number; the full orderable code on resellers and Netgear's own product listings is ACM762-10000S, where the -10000S suffix denotes the single-unit pack variant. Both refer to the same 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 module.
ACM762 is the Netgear-listed 100G QSFP28 optic for the M4500 family of high-density managed switches. Verified compatibility covers the M4500-32C (model CSM4532) and the M4500-48XF8C (XSM4556). Both are Netgear's 100G-capable platforms targeted at AV-over-IP cores and data-center aggregation. The EdgeOptic compatible coding ensures the module identifies cleanly on these switches, so the interface comes up at 100G with no override needed and DDM telemetry populates against the port.
The optical layer conforms to IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-LR4 (Clause 88). A cooled EML transmitter array drives four LAN WDM channels at 1295.56, 1300.05, 1304.58 and 1309.14 nm, multiplexed onto a single duplex LC single-mode fiber pair. PIN photodiode receivers recover the wavelengths at the far end. Each lane carries 25.78125 Gbps NRZ for a 103.125 Gbps aggregate line rate. The optical path loss budget of 6.3 dB supports the full 10 km G.652 SMF reach. TX and RX optical power, module temperature, supply voltage and laser bias current are exposed via SFF-8636 DDM telemetry. Module power draw stays within the 3.5 W QSFP28 envelope.
QSFP28 MSA (SFF-8665) and SFF-8636 management compliance covers the electrical and software interfaces. The duplex LC connector accepts standard SMF patch cords and the commercial 0 to 70 °C operating temperature range covers typical AV-over-IP and data-center aggregation environments. As a 100GBASE-LR4 IEEE 802.3ba module, the optic is interoperable end-to-end with any standards-compliant 100GBASE-LR4 port at the far side; only the M4500-side EEPROM coding is Netgear-specific.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty. For BOM verification or volume pricing, contact our sales team.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Netgear switches support the ACM762 transceiver?
ACM762 is the Netgear-listed 100G QSFP28 optic for the M4500 family of high-density managed switches. Verified platforms are the M4500-32C (model CSM4532) and the M4500-48XF8C (XSM4556), which are Netgear's 100G-capable switches in this family. The EdgeOptic compatible ships with EEPROM coding recognised on both, so the optic identifies correctly without manual override.
Is ACM762 the same as ACM762-10000S?
Yes, both refer to the same 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 module. ACM762 is Netgear's base part number; ACM762-10000S is the full orderable code, where the -10000S suffix denotes the single-unit pack variant on Netgear's own product listings and on reseller catalogs. Procurement systems may quote either form; they resolve to the same optic and the same EdgeOptic compatible SKU.
Does the EdgeOptic compatible ACM762 work natively on Netgear switches?
Yes. EdgeOptic codes the compatible's EEPROM with Netgear-recognised vendor and part-number values, so the module identifies on the M4500 management surfaces as a recognised ACM762 with no third-party override required. The interface comes up at 100G on both M4500-32C and M4500-48XF8C, and DDM telemetry populates against the port the same way it does for the OEM module.
Can the ACM762 connect to a non-Netgear 100G QSFP28 switch at the far end?
Yes. 100GBASE-LR4 is an IEEE 802.3ba standard with a defined LAN WDM wavelength plan and an LC duplex SMF interface. The optic on the M4500 side will interoperate with any standards-compliant 100GBASE-LR4 port at the other end of the fiber, regardless of which vendor terminates that end. The Netgear-specific EEPROM coding only affects how the module is identified locally on the M4500 host, not the optical handshake on the line.
