Cubro's OPTOSLIM MTP/MPO TAP is a passive fibre breakout TAP that makes an identical copy of your network's data, allowing your monitoring tools to see every bit, byte and packet.
It is ideally suited for any high speed Ethernet applications such 40G, 100G and 400G. The OPTOSLIM MTP/MPO TAP is available in singlemode and multimode and covers 40G SR, 40G PSM4, 100G SR4, 100G PSM4; 400G DR4; 400G XDR4 and 400G PLR4 tapping applications.
The TAP is connected inline with the 8-fibre MTP link. The MTP monitor ports feed a copy of the traffic on the link to a set of transceivers on a Cubro 40G/100G/400G Network Packet Broker for further packet processing like aggregation, filtering, load-balacing or deduplication.
The small form of the TAP allows to combine up to three different TAPs in a single RU.
Functions / Benefits
- Completely transparent and passive to see 100% of network traffic including errors and non standard network traffic.
- These TAPs rely on passive full duplex fiber optic splitters, which results in non-point-of- failure operation. It requires no power source to operate.
- The MTP/MPO TAPs are compatible with all major manufacturers' monitoring devices, including protocol analyzers, probes, and intrusion detection systems.
