Net Optics 4x1 GigaBit Copper Regeneration Tap
Net Optics 4x1 GigaBit Copper Regeneration Taps solve the key physical layer challenges of multi-device monitoring for GigaBit copper networks. For a better picture of network health, these Taps connect four different network management and security devices at any single GigaBit network location.
For superior reliability, the GigaBit Copper Regeneration Tap features Link Fault Detect which gives the devices connected to the Tap critical information about link status. If either side of the bi-directional link fails, the Tap immediately communicates the fault to both devices, reducing the time required to activate a redundant path.
One Tap, No Idle Resources
Keep your intrusion detection and prevention systems, protocol analyzers, RMON probes, and other security devices productive with a single Regeneration Tap. Maximize resources and save on access points when multiple devices can monitor link traffic simultaneously through a single Regeneration Tap. Secure, passive access for multiple devices simply means a better return on monitoring investments.
Security and Visibility
Without an IP address, monitoring devices are isolated from the network, dramatically reducing their exposure to attacks. However, the monitoring device connected to the Tap still sees all full-duplex traffic as if it were in-line, including Layer 1 and Layer 2 errors.
Reliability
For extra uptime protection, Net Optics Taps offer redundant power connections. Should the primary power source fail, the Tap automatically switches to the backup power source. Power LEDs on the front of the Tap indicate the current power.
