Traffic Access Point – TAP


Discover our TAP range

Gatewatcher offers a complete range of qualified optical and copper TAPs covering all your network monitoring and detection needs. Our secure TAPs easily and seamlessly integrate into your network, while ensuring the protection of the detection system (diode function).

Fiber TAP

Single mode TAP

GTAP_01310_1P | GTAP_01550_1P

The optical TAP module transparently and reliably duplicates the traffic flowing on your optical fiber.

Compared to traditional TAPs, Gatewatcher’s qualified TAPs guarantee physical integrity and protect you from attacks on the supply chain. Furthermore, they isolate and protect the analysis system through a diode function specifically developed for this product range.

Integrable into a modular chassis for rack mounting, you can mix different types of optical TAPs and accommodate up to 24 modules in 1U.

Finally, with no electrical power source required, the reliability of optical TAPs is unparalleled.

Features

– Diode function protects network against light insertion from TAP ports (>35 dB insertion loss on TAP port input blocks all signal)
-Non-intrusive in-line monitoring
– Permanent network link guaranteed
– Monitoring of all OSI layers
– No packet loss, no point of failure
– Passive, unpowered
– Various split ratios available :

COPPER TAPS

Gigabit ethernet copper
TAP

GTAP_CU_1P

The Gigabit Ethernet TAP transparently and reliably duplicates the traffic from a 10/100/1000 Mbps full duplex link. It provides monitoring devices with an exact copy of the traffic without impacting the network.

Compared to traditional TAPs, Gatewatcher’s qualified TAPs guarantee physical integrity and protect you from attacks on the supply chain. Furthermore, they isolate and protect the analysis system through an integrated diode function.

The external power supply module can be duplicated for increased reliability.

Features

– Non-intrusive in-line monitoring
– Permanent network link guaranteed
– Fail-safe in-line design ensures uninterrupted network operation in case of power loss
– Monitoring of all 7 OSI layers
– No packet loss, no point of failure
– Fully 802.3af and VoIP compliant, PoE passthrough
– Lower power consumption
– Supports link failure propagation (LFP)
– Redundant powering

High density gigabit ethernet copper TAP

GTAP_CU_8P

The high-density Gigabit Ethernet copper TAP is designed for monitoring up to 8 links of 10/100/1000 Mbps full duplex in a 1U space. Easily rack-integrable, the high-density Gigabit Ethernet copper TAP emerges as the ideal solution for data centers.

Compared to traditional TAPs, Gatewatcher’s qualified TAPs guarantee physical integrity and protect you from attacks on the supply chain. Furthermore, they isolate and protect the analysis system through an integrated diode function.

Finally, they feature dual integrated power supplies directly within the solution

Features
