Data Sheet Hybrid 1G Multimode Fiber TAPs w/ Data Diode Function
Hybrid Fiber TAPs with media conversion and signal regeneration are decoupling elements for passive, secure and reliable tapping of network data in optical networks. These TAPs are looped into the fibreoptic line to be monitored and route out the entire data traffic while maintaining data integrity, without interruption and without packet loss.
Furthermore, our hybrid TAPs are passive on the network side, which means that there is no interruption of network traffic in the event of a power failure. In order to ensure the highest possible reliability on the monitoring side, our hybrid Fiber TAPs have redundant power supplies, but can also be additionally operated and protected with 12-48V DC voltage.
These Taps also work like a data diode and the monitoring ports are physically isolated from the network ports, which prevents access to the network via the monitoring ports on the hardware side for security reasons. Therefore, our hybrid Fiber TAPs guarantee a reliable network analysis or security investigation without compromise.
This range of our PacketRaven TAPs is designed as portable TAPs, but can also be installed in a 19“ mounting frame in data centres via a mounting kit and support a network speed of 100Mbps (100Base-FX) or 1G (1000Base-SX).
