The 12x4 Port Aggregator provides simultaneous monitoring of up to 12 10/100/1000 links on 4 monitoring ports. Monitoring ports include 2 SFP modules and 2 100/1000 Aggregated TX ports which combine all user selected network inputs. Each monitoring port is independently controlled, allowing the user to forward any group of network ports to any monitoring server.
The network ports can be configured to operate in either span or inline mode giving the user flexibility to deploy multiple or all ports as inline taps while using the remaining ports as input streams only. Another configuration feature allows any of the 12 10/100/1000 links to be selected for aggregation enabling the user to choose dynamically which of the 12 ports to monitor.

This device enables local management via a serial console and remote management via telnet, SNMP or HTTP web browser. Extensive link diagnostics are available through each user interface. Ports may also be assigned text names of up to 80 characters for ease of use.
