Net Optics 4x1 GigaBit LX to SX Regeneration Tap

Net Optics 4x1 GigaBit LX to SX Regeneration Taps solve the key physical layer challenges of multi-device monitoring for GigaBit LX networks. The built-in LX to SX media converter makes it easy to access LX links with SX devices. For a better picture of network health, these Taps connect four different GigaBit SX network management and security devices at any single GigaBit LX network location.


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. Net Optics unique dust cap is tethered to the connector so it is always right where you need it.


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.
