The Gigamon G-TAP M Series is a family of high-density, passive fiber optical TAPs that require no power source to operate. By splitting the light optically, the G-TAP M Series enables network operators to passively monitor full-duplex fiber optic links without impacting the network traffic. Up to 36 full-duplex links can be tapped in a 1RU space, allowing for more visibility with less space and lower costs. The G-TAP M Series utilizes advanced thin-film technology to minimize insertion loss and maximize consistency across optical transceiver vendors when deploying within the narrow optical budgets of multimode fiber networks.
