The SINGLEstream™ Gigabit Link Aggregation Tap from Datacom Systems provides a superior solution for 24x7 monitoring of Ethernet links.

While traditional network taps might enable full-duplex monitoring of all traffic on a network link, they transmit the data to the monitoring device (e.g. analyzer, IDS, probe) in two separate half-duplex streams. Not only does this require the monitoring device to have two network interface cards (NIC), it also requires that the device be capable of combining and processing both streams of data in order to monitor both sides of the conversation. Not all monitoring devices have that capability.

The SINGLEstream™ Link Aggregation Tap faultlessly combines the two data streams, allowing any connected monitoring device to receive a full-duplex stream of data with one NIC.

With six (6) monitoring ports, the SS-1004BT-BT+6C is an ideal solution anywhere a regeneration tap is required to allow multiple devices to monitor the same network segment and eliminate contention for critical network access points.

• Connect any compatible device (protocol analyzers, probes, intrusion detection system, more) for permanent In-Line monitoring of full-duplex links - eliminates the need for network connectors to be disconnected and connected each time a segment needs to be monitored
• Two monitor ports allow two devices to simultaneously monitor the same link, providing extended security and analysis options, while eliminating contention for network access
• Redundant power supply insures seamless monitoring even if the main power source is unavailable
