Copper nTAPs

10/100 Copper nTAP

• Copies Fast Ethernet traffic from a full-duplex copper link for a copper monitoring device

• Connects to the full-duplex link under test and an analyzer equipped with a dual-receive capture card

10/100/1000 Copper nTAP

• Copies gigabit traffic from a full-duplex copper link for a copper monitoring device

• Auto-negotiates to also support 10 Mb and Fast Ethernet networks

• Connects to the full-duplex link under test and an analyzer equipped with a dual-receive capture card

10/100/1000 Copper to Optical Conversion nTAP

• Copies gigabit traffic from a full-duplex copper link for a copper or optical monitoring device

• Connects to the full-duplex link under test, and a copper or optical analyzer equipped with a dual-receive capture card

Aggregator nTAPs

10/100/1000 Aggregator nTAP

Transfers network traffic from a full-duplex copper link to a copper analysis or security device.

• The 10/100/1000 Aggregator nTAP efficiently copies full-duplex traffic and aggregates the traffic into a single stream to any analysis or security device with a single-receive capture interface

• Aggregator nTAPs provide greater protection than a SPAN port against packet loss on low-utilization networks

• Choose from a 256 MB or 512 MB buffer

10/100/1000 Aggregator Conversion nTAP

Transfers network traffic from a full-duplex copper link to a copper or optical analysis or security device.

• The 10/100/1000 Aggregator Conversion nTAP not only aggregates full-duplex traffic but also can convert that traffic to be analyzed by a copper or optical single-receive analysis or security device.

• Aggregator nTAPs provide greater protection than a SPAN port against packet loss on low-utilization networks

• Choose from a 256 MB or 512 MB buffer

• To connect to an optical device, the nTAP will need SFP modules (sold separately).

Optical Fiber nTAPs

One-Channel Optical Fiber nTAP

• Copies traffic from one full-duplex optical link for one optical monitoring device

• Connects to the full-duplex link under test and an analyzer equipped with a dual-receive capture card

• Available in both gigabit and 10 gigabit configurations

Two-Channel Optical Fiber nTAP

• Copies traffic from two full-duplex optical links for two optical monitoring devices

• Connects to two full-duplex links under test and two analyzers equipped with a dual-receive capture card

• Available in both gigabit and 10 gigabit configurations

Three-Channel Optical Fiber nTAP

• Copies traffic from three full-duplex optical links for three optical monitoring devices

• Connects to three full-duplex links under test and three analyzers equipped with a dual-receive capture card

• Available in both gigabit and 10 gigabit configurations
