V-Line (Bypass) TAPs

V-line™ (Bypass) TAPs

Network Critical’s V-Line TAPs provide a safe and easy way for you to deploy your monitoring tools Virtually Inline. When the risks of deploying a device in-line outweigh the benefits, this product will give you back the functionality you need. By installing a Network Critical V-Line TAP inline on your network, you do not risk your critical network going down. If you employ the Link-Failure Propagation feature, the device will monitor your links. If a connected device fails, the TAP will immediate drop the other live network port and the network will not go down.

Our V-Line TAPs also give you the ability to pass packets back onto the live network. When packet injection mode is on, the monitoring port becomes bi-directional. This allows the connected network tool to inject packets back out to the live network transparently. The received packets are then given high priority and are seamlessly switch with the live network traffic.

V-Line TAPs are available in a full range of network media and port densities to suit your deployment requirements. From portable units for strategic deployment into a single network to high density units for infrastructure deployment in the wiring cabinet, Network Critical has a solution that will fit seamlessly into your data center.
