Install nTAPs
on 1 Gb or 10 Gb single- or multi-mode optical
links for quick, anytime access to network traffic.
Depending on your needs, choose an Optical nTAP
that connects to one, two, or three full-duplex
links to send perfect copies of critical traffic
to network analyzers, remote monitoring appliances,
forensics tools, and similar dual-receive devices.
LC connections are standard. For further flexibility,
Copper-to-Optical and Optical-to-Copper Conversion
nTAPs are available.
Deployment
Single-Channel Optical nTAP
Place a One-Channel Optical nTAP between
two devices of interest on a full-duplex optical
link. Then attach an optical monitoring device
to the nTAP. To successfully analyze
the full-duplex link, the monitoring device must
be equipped with a dual-receive capture card.

Two-Channel Optical nTAP
Use the Two-Channel Optical nTAP to
connect up to two full-duplex optical links. Then
attach optical monitoring devices to the nTAP.
To successfully analyze the full-duplex link,
the monitoring devices must be equipped with a
dual-receive capture card.

Three-Channel Optical nTAP
Use the Three-Channel Optical nTAP to
connect up to three full-duplex optical links.
Then attach optical monitoring devices to the
nTAP. To successfully analyze the full-duplex
link, the monitoring devices must be equipped
with a dual-receive capture card.

Optical to Copper nTAP
Use the Three-Channel Optical nTAP to
connect up to three full-duplex optical links.
Then attach optical monitoring devices to the
nTAP. To successfully analyze the full-duplex
link, the monitoring devices must be equipped
with a dual-receive capture card.

Optical to Copper Aggregator nTAP
Use the Three-Channel Optical nTAP to
connect up to three full-duplex optical links.
Then attach optical monitoring devices to the
nTAP. To successfully analyze the full-duplex
link, the monitoring devices must be equipped
with a dual-receive capture card.
