The Silicom TAPSF is external passive TAP for 10 /1 fiber Gigabit Ethernet networks. The Silicom TAPSF captures both sides of the Network links and transmits a copy on to the monitor port, this feature enables full duplex monitoring of all packets transmitted between the Network ports.
The Silicom TAPSF does not require power; The Silicom TAPSF can be optionally installed in a rack mount frame.
