10/100BASE-T SFPNETGEAR AXM763-I Compatible 10G SFP+ LRM Transceiver Module
Built for hosts recognizing AXM763-I, this HT-manufactured SFP+ module delivers 10G transmission at 1310nm. Its rated reach is 220m on OM3 / 1.4km on SMF, with Duplex LC as the physical interface. The specifications and engineering guidance below support high-density deployments balance optical performance, port access and thermal planning, while keeping HT manufacture separate from the OEM cross-reference.

Applications and Optical Link Design
Typical deployments include switch-to-switch, switch-to-server and aggregation links inside a data hall or between adjacent equipment rooms. The Duplex LC interface connects to the specified multimode cabling, and the stated reach depends on fiber grade and link loss. Keep this interface on the matching multimode optical standard rather than connecting it directly to a single-mode wavelength or reach variant.
The industrial temperature rating makes this version appropriate for controlled outdoor cabinets, transport nodes and other installations exposed to wider ambient temperature variation. Adequate airflow, protected cable routing and host-platform temperature limits still apply.
For this multimode module, confirm fiber grade, modal bandwidth and total loss before commissioning. The 220m on OM3 / 1.4km on SMF figure applies only under suitable cabling conditions. Inspect every Duplex LC mating point and match the remote optical standard.
Quality Assurance and Packaging
Each AXM763-I compatible module is inspected, powered up and functionally checked before protective packing. Dust caps and individual trays shield the interface during transport. Customer references, rack groups and project packing lists can be added for volume orders.
Optical Acceptance, Diagnostics and Handling
For this model, the specified transmit-power range is -8.2~0.5dBm; receiver sensitivity is <-14.4dBm; the stated optical power budget is 6.2dB. 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. Diagnostic monitoring is listed as Supported. 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.
High-Density Port and Thermal Planning
In a densely populated chassis, connector access and airflow form part of the optical-link design. Confirm that neighboring modules and patch leads leave room for latch operation, and include listed power consumption in the host thermal budget. Assess port density together with fiber management. For this model, the principal parameters are data rate 10.3125Gbps, wavelength 1310nm, rated reach 220m on OM3 / 1.4km on SMF.
Ordering Information
When ordering, specify AXM763-I, SFP-10GLRM-31-I, quantity and intended host platform. Project labels can repeat these details for receiving and asset records. Neutral labels, customer packaging and project-specific compatibility review are available on request.
NETGEAR Compatibility and Factory Testing
The module is checked for host recognition as AXM763-I, link establishment and diagnostic reporting. Physical cage fit alone is not treated as evidence of compatibility. Equipment model, hardware revision and software release can be reviewed before dispatch where platform behavior is uncertain.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original NETGEAR transceiver?
No. It is an HT-manufactured compatible alternative for equipment that specifies AXM763-I, not an original NETGEAR-branded module.
Which fiber and connector are required?
Use Duplex LC with MMF/SMF. The specified maximum reach is 220m on OM3 / 1.4km on SMF, subject to fiber quality and total link loss.
Can it be mixed with another wavelength or reach version?
Only when the two ends share the same optical standard, wavelength plan and supported data rate. Check the exact part numbers and link budget rather than relying only on the module form factor.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
