Description
Dual Output LC Fiber TAP Single Mode and Multimode
The Dual Output LC Fiber TAP (Traffic Access Point) is a passive device designed for precise, real-time monitoring of a single network traffic stream entering the LC Rx ports by two separate analyzers. By splitting the optical signal twice, the tap provides two distinct monitor outputs from one link, allowing each output to be connected to an independent monitoring platform for separate filtering and analysis. The LC Fiber TAP Dual Output is fully passive, ensuring complete transparency and making it ideal for security applications and continuous network monitoring without causing interruption to live traffic. It also integrates seamlessly alongside solutions such as the Single Mode LC BiDi Fiber Tap, enabling a unified monitoring approach.
Arkoptics LC Fiber TAP Dual Output Cassettes fit into our MTP® / MPO Multi-Function Fiber Patch Panel. Three cassettes can be installed in the 1U MOD3 Solution, four in the 1U MOD4 High Density Solution, or five in the 1U MOD5 Ultra High Density Solution, enabling easy deployment of reliable taps, including the Single Mode LC BiDi Fiber Tap, across diverse infrastructures.
