Specifications

Applications and Optical Link Design

Use this module for equipment interconnection over the specified single-mode fiber plant, including enterprise backbone, campus, metro or data-center interconnect links according to its rated distance. Confirm that both ends use the same optical standard and wavelength plan, and allow for connector, splice and patch-panel loss within the stated power budget.

Before deployment, check the host port type, supported data rate and firmware requirements. The 10G interface configuration must match the remote equipment; sharing a SFP+ housing alone does not make two transceiver types interoperable.

For this 1550nm interface, verify channel spacing and filter compatibility. Passive filters add loss even without active equipment, so assess 40km using the complete channel rather than fiber distance alone.

Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling

For this model, the specified transmit-power range is -1~4dBm; receiver sensitivity is < -16dBm. Digital diagnostics make later maintenance easier when baseline values are captured at installation. Save the initial readings with the port and OEM reference, then investigate meaningful changes rather than reacting to a single transient value. Diagnostic support depends on the host as well as the module, so unavailable fields should be confirmed with the platform documentation. Before every insertion, keep dust caps in place until the patch lead is ready, avoid touching the optical end face and use an appropriate inspection and cleaning procedure. Do not look into an active optical interface.

Procurement and Asset Identification

A useful purchase order identifies the host platform, expected OEM code and optical standard separately. This prevents a module with the same housing but another wavelength, reach or identification profile from being substituted. For mixed deployments, keep one order line per OEM reference and reconcile each received unit with its intended port. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 11.3Gbps, wavelength 1550nm, rated reach 40km.

NETGEAR Compatibility and Factory Testing

Compatibility testing for AXM762 combines identification with a live link and available transmit, receive and alarm information. Connector condition is inspected separately. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.

Ordering Information

Use AXM762 as the compatibility cross-reference and SFP-10GER-55* as the HT ordering identity. Keep other reaches or wavelength directions on separate order lines. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Quality control covers the optical or electrical interface, host identification and operating link. The verified unit is then individually protected and cartoned. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
