Cubro Optical TAPs offer real-time monitoring access to a physical optical data link with zero performance degradation or disruption. Since an optical TAP is fully passive (no power supply needed) there is no risk associated with placing them inline on an active link. The TAPs do introduce additional optical power loss on the active link which varies with the split ratio used; otherwise, the TAP is completely transparent to the network.

Cubro Optical TAPs feature LC connectors and are available in Singlemode (1310/1550) fiber or Multimode (850/1300nm) fiber. For Multimode both 50/125µ and 62.5/125µ fiber types are available. The standard split ratio for a Singlemode TAP is 80/20 with 50/50 also available. The standard split ratio for Multimode is 50/50 with 70/30 as an available option as well. Other split ratios can be produced upon request.

Cubro offers a rack mounting bracket kit that allows for up to three TAP units to be mounted in a 1RU rack space. Cubro Optical TAPs can be used for all protocols and data rates (up to 100 Gbps) due to their fully transparent design. Every splitter used in the optical TAP is expertly handled and insertion loss is measured for each individual TAP produced. The test results for measured insertion loss are included with the TAP
