Extra small - Extra bandwidth - Access 40G Tools
The need to measure traffic loads on lightning-speed 40 Gigabit networks that carry a
multitude of VoIP, videoconferencing, enterprise level data and security applications
has never been greater. A reliable,
high-performance 40 Gbps cabling system that utilizes passive in-line Taps is a fundamental
asset in today’s leading organizations, to increase productivity on high-bandwidth ultra
fast links while decreasing operational costs.
Net Optics 40 GigaBit LC-based Fiber Taps are optimized and tested for 40 Gbps fiber
networks. Available in
multimode fiber, the 40 GigaBit Tap supports passive monitoring,
stealth operation, and 24x7 reliability for mission-critical networks.
All Optical Design
Requiring no power, the 40 GigaBit LC Fiber Taps maintain permanent access ports for
monitoring tools, without introducing a point of failure or interfering with network
connections. The passive nature of the 40 GigaBit Tap delivers
full-duplex monitoring
with 100 percent network traffic visibility, including layer 1 and 2 errors.
Simply Plug It In
Full-duplex monitoring is a snap with the supplied custom monitoring cable that sends
each side of the network link to a separate
NIC on the monitoring tool. All necessary
network and monitoring cables for plug-and-play deployment are included.
Security and Visibility
Because the Tap does not require an IP address, both the Tap and attached monitoring
tools are isolated from the network, dramatically reducing their exposure to attacks.
The combination of stealth operation and traffic monitoring through the network takes
secure visibility to a new level, ideal for achieving Data Security Compliance.
