Get total traffic visibility for monitoring and security devices by placing Net Optics DS3 Taps on critical network links. The DS3 Taps support passive monitoring at 44.736 Mbps of any protocol carried by channelized or unchannelized DS3, including ATM, Frame Relay, and more.

Transparent Access

The DS3 Taps establish permanent passive access ports without introducing a point of failure or disturbing other network connections. These passive Taps deliver full-duplex monitoring with zero impact on network traffic around the clock.

Simply Plug It In

All network and monitoring cables necessary for plug-and-play deployment are included with the Tap.

Reliability

For extra uptime protection, Net Optics DS3 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 source.
