Multiple Monitoring Ports
Gigabit 1x16 SX Fiber Tap
Gigabit 1x16 SX Fiber Tap
Network Tap group: Fiber Taps
The diagram shows how the fail safe 1xN Tap sits inline on any network providing multiple exact copies of all network traffic to N number of network analyzer or IDS devices.

The Gigabit 1X16 SX Fiber Tap allows the uninterrupted pass through of full duplex data over a single multimode fiber network. Decoding the optical signals, this device reclocks the data and electronically replicates multiple exact copies (including line errors) to 32 transmit-only multimode monitoring ports. A user can therefore monitor a duplex multimode network with up to 16 monitoring devices thus enabling multiple forms of lab analysis, network analysis and security detection on any one link at one time.

In addition, multiple monitoring port regeneration taps reclock the data to maximize the signal quality and power throughput. Multiple LEDs indicate power and link status for easy troubleshooting with connected equipment.

Gigabit 1x8 LX-SX Fiber Tap
Gigabit 1x8 LX-SX Fiber Tap
Network Tap group: Converter Taps
The diagram shows how the fail safe 1xN Tap sits inline on any network providing multiple exact copies of all network traffic to N number of network analyzer or IDS devices.

The Gigabit 1X8 fiber Tap allows the uninterrupted pass through of duplex data over one singlemode fiber network. Decoding the optical signals, this device reclocks the data and electronically replicates multiple exact copies (including line errors) to 16 transmit-only multimode monitoring ports. A user is then able to monitor a full duplex singlemode (1310nm) network with up to 8 multimode network analyzer or IDS devices thus enabling multiple forms of network analysis and security detection on any one link at one time.

In addition, multiple monitoring port regeneration taps reclock the data to maximize the signal quality and power throughput. Multiple LEDs indicate power and link status for easy troubleshooting with connected equipment.

10/100 1x6 Copper Tap
10/100 1x6 Copper Tap
Network Tap group: Copper Taps
The diagram shows how the fail safe 1xN Tap sits inline on any network providing multiple exact copies of all network traffic to N number of network analyzer or IDS devices.

The 10/100 1X6 Copper Tap allows the uninterrupted pass through of full duplex data over standard UTP Category 5 copper cable. Featuring auto negotiating between 10Mbps and 100Mbps this Tap will regenerate multiple exact copies of the network traffic (including any existing line errors) to the 12 transmit-only monitoring ports, allowing full duplex stealth monitoring on up to six network analyzer or IDS devices.

A constant Up-link feature ensures zero delay and zero data loss on the network ports in the event power is either lost or restored. Multiple LEDs indicate power, link and speed for easy installation and troubleshooting with connected equipment.

OC3 1x4 Fiber Tap
OC3 1x4 Fiber Tap
Network Tap group: Fiber Taps
The diagram shows how the fail safe 1xN Tap sits inline on any network providing multiple exact copies of all network traffic to N number of network analyzer or IDS devices.

The OC3 1X4 Fiber Tap allows the uninterrupted pass through of full duplex data over multimode fiber cable. Decoding the optical signals, this device reclocks the data and electronically replicates multiple exact copies (including line errors) to 8 transmit-only multimode monitoring ports. A user is then able to monitor a full duplex multimode network with up to 4 multimode network analyzer or IDS devices thus enabling multiple forms of network analysis and security detection on any one link at one time.

In addition, multiple monitoring port regeneration taps reclock the data to maximize the signal quality and power throughput. Multiple LEDs indicate power and link status for easy troubleshooting with connected equipment.

10/100/1000 1x2 Aggregation Tap
10/100 1x2 Aggregation Tap
Network Tap group: Copper Taps
The diagram shows how the fail safe 1xN Tap sits inline on any network providing multiple exact copies of all network traffic to N number of network analyzer or IDS devices.

The 10/100/1000 1x2 Aggregation Tap allows the fail-safe and 'Link Safe' pass through of duplex data over standard UTP cable. Employing 64MB (512Mb) of memory the aggregation feature of this Tap enables a user to monitor 100% of the duplex link on a single transmit-only monitoring port. This Tap guarantees the preservation of packet order during aggregation.

Two aggregation ports enable the user to monitor the network (including any existing line errors) on up to 2 devices simultaneously, allowing further ROI gain.

Featuring auto negotiation and data reclocking this Tap surpasses all in its class for performance, flexibility and affordability. Multiple LEDs indicate power status, link, activity, speed and any event of buffer overflow.
