Optical nTAPs

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.
