World first SINGLEstream™ 10/100/1000 Link Aggregation RegenTAP combo provides a superior solution for 24x7 monitoring of full-duplex Gigabit Ethernet links.
While traditional copper gigabit 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™ faultlessly combines the two data streams, allowing any connected Gigabit monitoring device to receive a full-duplex stream of data with one NIC.
Additionally, the SINGLEstream™ provides a unique feature to help manage network resources - a second monitor port. With an extra monitor port, two devices (such as an analyzer and an intrusion prevention device) can receive the same full-duplex transmission, so there will never be contention for access to the network link.
Just like all our tap products, the SINGLEstream™ is completely non-intrusive. The SINGLEstream's industry-leading, fault-tolerant design has been thoroughly tested and has proven that even if power is lost to the tap, network traffic will continue to flow.
