Get total traffic visibility for monitoring and security devices by placing the GigaBit or 10GigaBit Ixia Net Optics Fiber Tap HD8 on critical network links. The slim profile of the Fiber Tap HD8 saves rack space. The all-optical design of the Fiber Tap HD8 is optimized and tested for high-performance on 1- and 10-GigaBit fiber networks. Available for both single mode and multimode fiber, the Fiber Tap HD8 supports passive monitoring of 8 links at speeds of 1000 Mbps (for the 1Gb tap) and 10,000 Mbps (for the 10Gb tap) in just 0.5U (16 links in 1U).
Requiring no power, the Fiber Tap HD8 maintains permanent passive access ports without introducing a point of failure or disturbing other network connections. These passive taps deliver full-duplex monitoring with zero impact on network traffic around the clock.
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 sees all full-duplex traffic as if it were in-line, including Layer 1 and Layer 2 errors.
