10 GigaBit In-Line

Regeneration Taps

Net Optics 10 GigaBit Regeneration Taps solve the key physical layer challenges of multi-device monitoring for 10 GigaBit networks. For a complete picture of network health, these Taps connect up to eight different network management and security devices at any single 10 GigaBit network location.

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 link traffic simultaneously through a single Regeneration Tap.

Without an IP address, monitoring devices are isolated from the network, dramatically reducing their exposure to attacks. However, the monitoring device connected to the Tap still sees all full-duplex traffic as if it were in-line, including Layer 1 and Layer 2 errors.

For extra uptime protection, Net Optics Taps offer redundant power connections. Should the primary power source fail, the Tap automatically switches to the backup power source. Power LEDs on the front of the Tap indicate the current power source.

Passive, Secure Technology

•Optimized and tested for 10 GigaBit fiber networks with 8.5µm fiber

•Enables real-time, simultaneous monitoring of a single 10 GigaBit link with up to eight monitoring devices

•Provides complete full-duplex visibility at 10 Gbps without data stream interference or introducing a point of failure

•Passes all traffic (including errors) from all layers for comprehensive troubleshooting

•No IP address is needed for the Tap or monitoring device, enhancing monitoring security

•Redundant power ensures monitoring uptime

Ease of Use

•LED indicators show link status and redundant power

•Front-mounted connectors support easy installation and operation

•Connectors are perfectly angled to reduce cable strain

•Silk-screened application diagram illustrates all connections for easy deployment

•Optional custom monitoring cables support easy full-duplex monitoring by sending each side of the signal to a separate monitoring device NIC

•Tested and compatible with all major manufacturers’ monitoring devices, including protocol analyzers, probes, and intrusion detection/prevention systems
