Dualcomm ETAP-3105 Failsae GbE Copper Ethernet Network Tap

Network Regeneration Tap for use with a 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet link Includes one aggregation monitor port and a pair of non-aggregation monitor ports Failsafe Bypass PoE pass-through. Compatible with Power over Ethernet (PoE) Link Fault Pass-Through (LFPT) Dualcomm ETAP-3105 is a GbE copper Network Regeneration Tap for use with a 10/100/1000Base-T link. The two inline ports of ETAP-3105 will fail over automatically to maintain link connectivity when ETAP-3105 loses power. As such, ETAP-3105 can be used for deployment in critical link paths in a network. When a link goes down on either side of the ETAP-3105 Tap, the link on the other side of the ETAP-3105 Tap will go down automatically. This feature is usually desirable or required for high availability deployment to reduce the time for activating a redundant link path in a network. ETAP-3105 provides an aggregation monitor port and a pair of non-aggregation monitor ports for outputting captured the inline traffic. The aggregation monitor port outputs a copy of the inline traffic in both directions. Each non-aggregation monitor port outputs a copy of inline traffic in only one direction. Using the pair of non-aggregation monitor ports is usually preferred for high data throughput situations to avoid possible packet loss due to port oversubscription. ETAP-3105 is compatible with Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), which is capable of passing PoE inline power between two copper inline ports. As such a connected PoE powered device (e.g., a PoE IP phone) can still receive the inline power from its PoE capable link partner such as a PoE switch.
