NetOptics

Net Optics Multi-Station 10/100Mbps Taps supply mission-critical networks with superior network visibility and security access. The breakthrough design of the Net Optics 10/100Mbps Tap ensures zero impact on network traffic while maintaining uninterrupted access for monitoring and security devices. These are the world’s first 10/100Mbps Taps offering “Zero Delay” technology.

The efficient Multi-Station 10/100Mbps Tap enables the ability to connect up to twelve monitoring tools to up to twelve different network links, saving rack space and money.
 

Zero Delay^™

Highly sensitive network locations can improve monitoring performance via the innovative features of Net Optics Taps. Net Optics’ Zero Delay ensures that any loss of power to the Tap is transparent to the network, and does not affect the flow of traffic through the Tap – eliminating packet delay and loss as potential security issues.
 

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 10/100Mbps 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 – even if power is lost and reapplied, there is always zero delay to network traffic.
