The SINGLEstream™ SS-1204LX-SFP Configurable Link Aggregation Tap enables any two connected monitoring devices to simultaneously monitor a full-duplex tapped LX link, using only one NIC per device.

Unlike traditional network taps, this in-line tap combines both sides of a full duplex data stream and hands the data off to up to two tools with single NICs, allowing monitoring systems with single channel NICs to view entire full-duplex transmissions.

An easy to use CLI provides access to dozens of features and settings, including port speed, port steering, and VLAN tag stripping.

• 24x7 access point for network monitoring and security tools
• Manage tap via networked management port or local serial port
• Passive tap connection ensures network uptime and security – won’t break the network link even if power is lost to the tap
• “Any-to-Any” architecture on two (2) ports allows you to steer traffic as desired – configure one of your SFP ports to collect data from a SPAN port.
• Dual redundant, load balanced power supplies
• In-Line design eliminates contention for network access by freeing up SPAN/Mirror ports
• Standard split ratio 50/50; others available upon request
• SFP connectors for the monitoring ports (“Any-to-Any” ports) are available in SX, LX, and RJ45, which will allow you to connect copper or fiber tools
