GigaBit Span Regeneration Tap™ with SFP Monitor Ports Multimode and Singlemode Fiber

Net Optics GigaBit Regeneration Taps solve the key physical layer challenges of multi-device monitoring for Gigabit networks. For a complete picture of network health, these Taps fan out two switch Span ports to up to four different network management and security devices each.

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 the same traffic simultaneously through a single one of these Taps.

Modular SFP Monitor Ports

For optimal flexibility, GigaBit Regeneration Taps have SFP monitor ports so they can attach to monitoring equipment with any type of interface—singlemode fiber, multimode fiber, and copper. Just plug in the appropriate SFP transceiver modules for as many and whatever types of tools you want to connect.

Security and Visibility

Without an IP address, monitoring devices are isolated from the network, dramatically reducing their exposure to attacks.

Reliability

For extra uptime protection, Net Optics Taps offer redundant power connections. Should one power source fail, the Tap continues to operate normally using only the remaining power source. Power LEDs on the front of the Tap indicate the current power sources.
