10 GigaBit Fiber LC Tap
Passive monitoring access for 100% visibility
The need to measure traffic loads on networks that carry VoIP, videoconferencing, and security applications has never been greater. A reliable, high-performance 10Gbps network that utilizes passive in-line Taps is a fundamental asset in today’s leading organizations, to increase productivity while decreasing operational costs.
Net Optics 10 GigaBit LC-based Fiber Taps are optimized and tested for high-performance 10Gbps fiber networks. Available in single-mode and multi-mode fiber, the 10 GigaBit Tap supports passive monitoring, stealth operation, and 24x7 reliability.
All Optical Design Requiring no power, the 10 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 10 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
Depending on your network environment, network and monitoring cable kits may be necessary for deployment. Net Optics' Cable Kits give you all the cables you need to deploy a Net Optics LC Fiber Tap in an LC- or SC- connected environment. Custom monitoring cables are used to send each side of the network link to a separate NIC on the monitoring tool for full-duplex monitoring.
Cable Kits are sold separately.
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.
Choose the Right Rack Mount Frame
The LC Fiber Taps fit into the new 8 slot rack frame. Part number: RK-8V2
