Products Overview - TAP Series - Network TAPs - 10/100/1000 Copper and Media Converter TAPs


  • VSS 10/100/1000 and 1G v1x1 Network TAPs allow uninterrupted pass-through of data over standard UTP copper or Gigabit fiber. The TAPs will accurately duplicate 10/100/1000 or 1G Ethernet signals (including all data and timing errors) to the transmit-only monitoring ports. Some models will convert optical media to copper monitor port output or copper media to an optical monitor port output.

    Secure: Traffic ports not having a presence on the network safeguard your security and performance monitoring tools and access to the TAPs.

    High Performance: Full line rate throughput, all layer 1 and 2 functionality, and low latency throughput to monitor output guarantee full visibility at line speeds.

    Reliable: Redundant power supplies, Hyper-fast failover and link re-negotiation for 1G copper networks (vAssure), and 100% passive inline optical access ensure your network never goes down.

    Scalable: Work independently or in conjunction with each other and any VSS network packet broker as part of a vMesh.
