A Network TAP (test access point) is a hardware device that allows you to monitor and secure your network traffic by copying packets from a network link without impacting or compromising network integrity.
Garland Technology’s Unmanaged, Powered Multimode Fiber Network TAPs provide full duplex packet visibility in 1G and 10G networks.
A portable, Powered Multimode Fiber TAP is placed between two (2) network devices to mirror (or copy) the network traffic flowing through those devices. The TAP is unmanaged in that it is configured with DIP switches on the back of the TAP. The TAP supports breakout and aggregation modes. It is ideal for deployments requiring media conversion. The TAP is passive and does not alter the traffic flow in any way. Multimode Fiber TAPs are designed for short-range connectivity environments.

Key Features
- Multimode 1G-SX and 1G/10G-SR available
- Media conversion: 1G-SX to copper, 1G-SX to SFP, and 1G/10G-SR to SFP+
