10/100/1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet Network TAP (ETAP-2003R)

[For users requiring unblocked ingress traffic on the monitor port, the ETAP-2003R variant is available for such use cases.] The Dualcomm ETAP-2003 is a compact and solidly constructed Network TAP designed for use with 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet links. Housed in a durable metal case, it is one of the smallest GbE Network TAPs available on the market. Capable of being powered via a computers USB port, the ETAP-2003 includes a built-in inrush current limiting circuit to safeguard the computer from potential damage or disruptions caused by instantaneous current surges. Additionally, it is fully compatible with Power over Ethernet (PoE), ensuring that the deployment of the ETAP-2003 does not interrupt the end-to-end flow of PoE inline powera critical feature for monitoring or capturing data traffic on PoE-enabled Ethernet links. As a reliable network monitoring and troubleshooting tool, the ETAP-2003 delivers consistent performance. It has been rigorously tested with a maximum in-line cable length of 200 meters, supporting full 1Gbps data throughput without any packet loss, making it an ideal choice for portable network traffic sniffing and diagnostics. The ETAP-2003 also features ingress traffic blocking on the monitor port to prevent monitoring devices, such as computers, from injecting packets back into the network. All these features make the ETAP-2003 an excellent tool for professionals who need to monitor and troubleshoot data traffic in 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet networks with confidence and efficiency.
