?BENEFITS ? Enables dynamic insertion of Security, Analysis, & Monitoring Devices into 10 or 100 Mbps networks without causing a point of failure ? Provides zero network downtime if the tap were to lose power by utilizing an instantaneous fail over mechanism ? Support for Power over Ethernet with compatibility to switches and other devices that supply power over Ethernet cables ? Redundant power supplies ensure uninterrupted monitoring ? Provides passive network moni- toring without interfering with the data stream as the tap does not add any delay to network traffic ? Offers significant advantages over ?Port Mirroring? for Intrusion Detection, Network Analysis, or Monitoring S H A D O W T A P 1 0 / 1 0 0 Shadow Tap 10/100 with No Network Downtime on Power Loss. Ideal for use with Intrusion Detection Systems and Network Protocol Analyzers. Interested in monitoring your network for unwanted security breaches with network intrusion detection systems but concerned about creating a point of failure on the network? Are you trying to troubleshoot network problems with protocol analyzers but require all packets to be examined? How do you install such analysis equipment in your networks without interfering with network per- formance, dropping packets, or creating a point of failure? By using network taps, you can create a permanent access point on the network for intrusion detection systems, protocol analyzers, and other detailed network monitoring equipment. Network taps are completely passive as they pass through traffic on the network while making a copy of all the packets for analysis purposes. Even if the tap were to lose power, network traffic will continue to pass through the tap unimpeded. Network performance is not interfered with in any way and taps free up span or mirror ports on your switch. Whether used in half or full duplex mode, network taps can provide visibility to all levels of the network stack, enabling comprehensive analysis even for physical layer errors. Finisar?s Shadow Tap 10/100 provides line rate access to traffic at 10 or 100 Mbps on Ethernet networks without interfering with the data stream and it is fully compatible with intrusion detection sys- tems (IDS), protocol analyzers, and other leading network monitor- ing devices. With an instantaneous fail over feature, the Shadow Tap provides no network disruption if the tap were to lose power, offering fault tolerance to the network infrastructure. In addition, dual power supplies provide additional redundancy in case power is lost to the 1389 Moffett Park Drive | Sunnyvale, CA 94089 | 408-400-1000 | networktools-sales@finisar.com www.finisar.com
