Increases the value of a single switch mirror port by replicating the traffic to multiple monitoring and analysis devices Increases visibility across numerous network segments, maximizing the utility of analysis and monitoring devices Decreases the time it takes to deploy analysis devices to trouble spots on the network Decreases contention for switch mirror port connections Maximizes the ROI on analysis and monitoring devices Any-to-any architecture and port steering make it easy to direct the desired mix of traffic to the appropriate device. Many-to-one architecture allows analysis devices to have improved visibility with fewer ports

Increase the visibility and performance of network monitoring and analysis devices Share information between multiple departments Reduce the number of monitoring and analysis devices needed to effectively manage your network Gain access to full-duplex and meshed network traffic for multiple analysis devices Improve the performance of network analysis solutions using hardware-based filtering within the tap Eliminate the possibility of dropped packets by filtering for only relevant traffic Speed troubleshooting with instant plug-and-play access to critical network segments Decease the cost associated with network access for network, application and security analysis solutions
