Netgear compatible AXLM761 Description
EdgeOptic's AXLM761 compatible is a version of the EdgeOptic BIDI-40G-QSFP-150 multi-vendor 40G BiDi QSFP+ transceiver. The compatible-optics market identifies AXLM761 as a 40G BiDi ordering reference for Netgear's M4300-96X switch family. Netgear does not manufacture its own QSFP+ transceivers or cables.
Netgear's own support documentation states that Netgear offers no QSFP+ transceiver modules or cables and that any third-party, IEEE-compliant 40GBASE-X transceiver module works with the switch. The M4300-96X accepts 40G QSFP+ optics through its APM402XL two-port port card.
The underlying hardware runs 40G Ethernet at a 41.25 Gbps rate over a duplex LC (two-fiber) interface, using dual-wavelength BiDi transmission at 850 and 900 nm across OM3, OM4 or OM5 multimode fiber to 150 meters. This BiDi design is a de facto industry specification rather than a distinct IEEE optical class. VCSEL transmitters and PIN photodiode receivers support a 2 dB average link budget, with launch power from -4 to 5 dBm per lane and receive sensitivity from -6 to 3 dBm per lane. DDM and DOM diagnostics are supported, and the module operates across a standard 0 to 70 degrees C range.
Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms, the AXLM761 compatible ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty. For confirmation of Netgear platform compatibility or project quantity pricing, contact our sales team.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Netgear support third-party QSFP+ transceivers?
Netgear's support knowledge base states that Netgear does not offer any QSFP+ transceiver modules or cables and that any third-party, IEEE-compliant 40GBASE-X transceiver module or cable works with the switch. AXLM761 is identified under this policy as a 40G BiDi 150m option, though it does not appear on Netgear's own cleared-module list for the APM402XL port card. That list names AXLM762-10000S, a different 40GBASE-LR4 10km module, plus the AXLC761 and AXLC763 DAC cables.
Which Netgear switch platforms take 40G QSFP+ optics?
The Netgear M4300-96X switch accepts 40G QSFP+ optics through its APM402XL two-port port card. Other M4300 switch models and port cards may use different transceiver form factors, so verify the port card fitted to the specific unit before ordering.
