NI 10/100/1000 nTAP

The 10/100/1000 Aggregator Conversion nTAP not only aggregates full-duplex traffic but also can convert that traffic to be analyzed by a copper or optical single-receive analysis or security device.

If the network traffic entering the Aggregator nTAP exceeds the capacity of the analyzer’s capture cards, the buffer attempts to capture the excess bandwidth, releasing to the analyzer when the analyzer’s capacity to receive returns.

How the nTAP Works

The nTAP replicates the copper signal and sends one signal back to the network. The other signal is sent to the copper analysis device or converted to an optical signal and sent to an optical-based analyzer.

• 10/100/1000 Copper nTAPs transfer network data at line rate from 100 Mb or 1000 Mb full-duplex links to a monitoring device
• Replicates the full-duplex signal from network devices
• Combines the full-duplex data from the network; sending a copy to one or two analysis devices
• Three buffer size options: 256 MB, 512 MB, or 1 GB
