The need to measure traffic loads on networks that carry VoIP, video conferencing, and security applications has never been greater. A reliable, high-performance 1Gbps cabling system that utilizes passive in-line Taps is a fundamental asset in today’s leading organizations, to increase productivity while decreasing operational costs.

Net Optics GigaBit LC-based Fiber Taps are optimized and tested for optimal performance on 1Gbps fiber networks. Available in single-mode and multi-mode fiber, the GigaBit Tap supports passive monitoring, stealth operation, and

24x7 reliability.

All Optical Design

Requiring no power, the GibaBit LC Fiber Taps maintain permanent access ports for monitoring tools, without introducing a point of failure or interfering with network connections. The passive nature of the GigaBit Tap delivers full-duplex monitoring with 100 percent network traffic visibility, including layer 1 and 2 errors. The optical split ratio can be selected to match the monitoring requirements of your network.

Simply Plug It In

Full-duplex monitoring is a snap with the supplied custom monitoring cable that sends each side of the network link to a separate NIC on the monitoring tool. All necessary network and monitoring cables for plug-and-play deployment are included.

Security and Visibility

Because the Tap does not require an IP address, both the Tap and attached monitoring tools are isolated from the network, dramatically reducing their exposure to attacks. The combination of stealth operation and traffic monitoring through the network takes secure visibility to a new level, ideal for achieving Data Security Compliance.
