8x1 Dual Span Regeneration Tap

Passive monitoring access for multiple devices.

install guide data sheet

Net Optics 8x1 GigaBit SX Dual Span Regeneration Taps solve the key physical layer challenges of access to scarce spanning resources. For a complete picture of network health, these Taps connect two switch Span ports to up to sixteen different network management and security devices. Each Span session can be independently monitored by up to eight devices.

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.

Span Port Sharing

When a Span session is connected into the Network A port, this data can be monitored simultaneously on all Monitor A ports. A second Span session can be monitored simultaneously on all Monitor B ports. The data on the Network A and Network B ports remains completely separate. Each monitoring device receives the same traffic in real time, providing a detailed picture of network health.

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.
