Netgear compatible AXM761 Description
AXM761 is Netgear's 10GBASE-SR SFP+ transceiver for ProSAFE managed switches, also ordered under the full catalogue number AXM761-10000S. EdgeOptic's compatible replacement matches the original optical and electrical specifications: 850 nm VCSEL transmitter, LC duplex connector, PIN photodiode receiver, 6.1 dB minimum link budget, and 300 m reach over OM3 multimode fiber (400 m on OM4). The module conforms to IEEE 802.3ae 10GBASE-SR and SFF-8431/8432 MSA, with a supported data-rate range of 1.25 to 10.3125 Gbps covering both 10G Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet operation. Distance figures are calculated from the guaranteed minimum optical budget against typical multimode fiber attenuation at 850 nm, so actual reach depends on the installed cabling infrastructure, patch panel losses, and connector cleanliness at each mating point.
Netgear qualifies the AXM761 for ProSAFE M5300, M7100, and M7300 series chassis. EdgeOptic programs the EEPROM to report a Netgear-recognized vendor ID, so the switch accepts the module without manual overrides or unsupported-transceiver warnings. DDM/DOM is active on insertion, providing real-time Tx power, Rx power, temperature, bias current, and supply voltage readout through the switch CLI or SNMP polling. These diagnostic values let administrators set threshold-based alerts for degrading fiber links before a connection drops entirely. Operating temperature range is 0 to 70 °C commercial grade. The module is dual-rate capable, meaning when the host port is configured for 1G, the transceiver operates at 1.25 Gbps line rate; the active rate is set by the switch firmware or rate-select configuration, provided the switch firmware supports SFP+ to SFP rate fallback on that specific port type.
Netgear also lists the AXM764 as a 10GBASE-SR SFP+, but the two SKUs target different switch generations and firmware branches, so they are not interchangeable on every platform. Verify the correct part number against the specific chassis model's compatibility matrix before ordering. The module complies with SFF-8431 mechanical and electrical MSA, and is CE/RoHS certified.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Netgear AXM761 and AXM764?
Both are 10GBASE-SR SFP+ modules with identical optical parameters (850 nm, 300 m OM3, 6.1 dB budget), but they carry different Netgear part numbers because they are qualified for different switch families and firmware revisions. Check Netgear's hardware compatibility list for the specific chassis model before selecting a SKU.
Which Netgear ProSAFE switches support the AXM761?
Netgear lists the AXM761 (AXM761-10000S) for M5300, M7100, and M7300 series managed switches. EdgeOptic's compatible module is EEPROM-coded for these platforms and reports the expected vendor string on insertion. DDM diagnostics are accessible through the switch management interface on all listed models.
