Gigamon G-TAP-200 High-Density Passive Network TAP

Gigamon G-TAP-200 Enterprise High-Density Passive Network Visibility TAP Module

1. High-Density Non-Intrusive Network Visibility: Delivers 100% full-duplex traffic visibility by inline tapping critical network links without dropping packets or introducing latency into core data streams.
2. Passive Copper & Optical Tap Architecture: Maintains continuous inline physical link connectivity even during complete power loss (fail-safe operation), ensuring critical network traffic flows uninterrupted without single-point-of-failure risk.
3. Dual-Channel High-Speed Monitoring: Out-of-band monitoring ports provide full-duplex packet copies of both transmit (TX) and receive (RX) data channels simultaneously to downstream network monitoring, security, and analysis tools.
4. Seamless GigaVUE Security Fabric Integration: Integrates effortlessly into Gigamon GigaVUE traffic visibility nodes, network packet brokers (NPBs), and intrusion detection systems (IDS) for centralized network monitoring.
5. Zero Packet Delay & Ultra-Low Latency Performance: Preserves exact packet timing, preamble, and frame check sequence (FCS) CRC integrity, making it ideal for high-frequency trading networks, VOIP monitoring, and forensics.
6. High-Density Modular Form Factor: Modular enterprise design allows multiple G-TAP-200 units to be mounted side-by-side in a single 1U rackmount chassis for scalable high-density data center deployments.
7. Enterprise-Grade Heavy-Duty Hardware: Housed in a compact, industrial-grade metal enclosure built for 24/7 mission-critical operations across enterprise data centers, telecom headends, and security operations centers (SOC).

The Gigamon G-TAP-200 is an enterprise-grade passive network TAP designed to provide complete, non-intrusive traffic visibility across high-speed data center links, enterprise campus networks, and security operation centers (SOC). By capturing 100% of full-duplex network trafficincluding errors, preambles, and jumbo framesthe G-TAP-200 allows network administrators and security analysts to feed exact packet copies to intrusion detection systems (IDS), packet analyzers, and monitoring tools without disrupting production traffic.

Engineered with fail-safe passive pass-through technology, the G-TAP-200 ensures continuous physical link connectivity even during power disruptions or hardware maintenance, eliminating network single points of failure. The unit integrates seamlessly into the broader Gigamon GigaVUE visibility fabric and supports modular installation, allowing up to three TAP modules to fit into a single 1U rackmount tray. Housed in a heavy-duty metal casing, the Gigamon G-TAP-200 provides a reliable, low-latency foundation for network security monitoring and performance management.
