description
Increasing network traffic in data centers continues to expand the need for network visibility, and networks are now upgrading to 40Gbps and 100Gbps speeds. Accessing network traffic with low-density passive optical TAPs consumes valuable rack space. The new VSS Monitoring High Density (HD) Fiber TAP is the most flexible optical TAP in the market today. 100% passive (and therefore fail-safe), it provide scalable deployments for 100Mbps-100Gbps environments while delivering the highest available port density in a 1RU form factor of any TAPs.

Technical and Environmental• Increasing network traffic in global data centers drives
expanding need for network visibility; Networks are now upgrading 40Gbps and 100Gbps speeds
• Low-density passive optical TAPs consume valuable rack space
Procurement and Sourcing• TAPs have left gaps in access offerings: varying media
types with an attractive price left unaddressed
• Streamlined customer processes request single point of purchase for network packet brokers and TAPs
Fiber (Optical) TAP Market Challenges

• HD (High Density) Fiber TAP provides
• Scalable deployments for 100Mbps-100Gbps environments
• 100% passive and failsafe optical network access
• Highest tapping density for 40Gbps and 100Gbps Multimode environments
• Flexibility to mix tapping of Singlemode and Multimode links at speeds from 100Mbps-100Gbps in one form factor
• 1RU can have up to:
• 24 TAP modules with LC ports,
• 16 TAP modules with MPO (MTP) ports,
• or a mix thereof
• MPO modules do not require Y-cable for output, providing organized cable management
• Attractive price and thoughtful design
