DiodeTAP Module for Data Centres
DiodeTAP Module , Profitab has a range of products catering for Data Centre Solutions, Industrial Solutions and Field Services Solutions.
A network TAP guarantees full capture of 100% of packets and feeds them to the packet analyser tool. Amongst the various types of TAPs available, portable TAPs are fast gaining popularity due to the flexibility to carry them on the field and deploy them instantly at any location. They easily hook up to your laptop, and with a tool like WireShark installed, your laptop turns into a mobile troubleshooting kit ready to dig into any network problem, especially those nagging performance issues. Using portable network TAPs is also suitable for those IT Managers who are not yet ready to deploy full-scale TAPs permanently in their network and just need an on-demand kit to be used as/when/where needed.
DiodeTAP Module – LC Tap module with total protection
The DiodeTAP Module provides a TAP point with an innovative security feature. It prevents any potential attacks or disruptions by blocking light coming from the monitor ports. The DiodeTAP ensures total security and availability for monitored networks, while providing 100% visibility.
The DiodeTAP Module uses LC connectors with low insertion loss zirconia sleeve adapters, and is available in Single-Mode (9/125µm) 1310nm and 1550nm, with split ratios of 50/50 and 60/40 (other split ratios available on demand).
MOD-TAP
