C8-1G avoids downtime in your 10/100/1000BaseT network. Once in place it enables you to monitor half/full duplex communication and move test equipment without breaking the circuit.

The passive Tap is fully transparent to the network devices and mirrors full duplex trafic as if monitor devices were in-line. It has no IP adress and is non-intrusive for 100% security. Unlike SPAN ports it monitors all seven protocol layers and any package size including errors.

The Permanent Network Link feature guarantees permanent network connectivity even when power fails. No packages are lost at power failure. Fully IEEE 802.3 / 802.3af and VoIP compliant, it works at distances over 100mtr.

Self explanatory LED fonctions, each port shows the presence of both the Link and Activity, the Speed LEDs show if the TAP is in Speed negociation mode or has agreed on a common Speed. Two power LEDs show redundant power.

Low power consumption. 2 very low noise fans in swappable unit. Internal circuitry regulates speed according to temperature.

It is designed for redundant networking. Any network link failure is transfered to activate auto-negotiation or redundant path.

It is Redundant powered for maximum monitoring uptime.

The Tap is 802.3 compliant and non-intrusive to the network. Network ports A and B are hardwired together and the Tap does not introduce a point of failure in the network.

C8-1G Tap can be redundant powered. Using the redundant power feature guarantees a maximum monitoring uptime off the monitor ports. Two LEDs show the presence of power. The Tap is fully functional using only one power supply.

The bypass circuitry guarantees permanent network connectivity, also when power fails. No data is passed to the Tap ports at power failure.

The Tap ports are galvanical separated from the network ports and in such way protecting your monitoring equipment from PoE.
