100% Visibility, Zero Packet Loss
Hardware-based data access ensuring your security and monitoring tools see every single bit of traffic without compromise.
Hardware-Based Data Access
Unlike SPAN/Mirror ports—which are prone to packet drops and timing issues—Network Critical TAPs provide a permanent, non-intrusive window into your infrastructure.
Engineered for Reliability
Comprehensive range of TAPs to suit any network architecture.
Passive Fiber TAPs
Power-independent units for high-speed fiber links. No configuration, no point of failure.
Active Copper TAPs
Fail-safe hardware for 10/100/1000Base-T networks that ensures link continuity during power loss.
Aggregating TAPs
Reduce tool sprawl by combining multiple traffic streams into a single monitoring output.
Regeneration TAPs
Replicate a single link to multiple output ports for simultaneous inspection by IDS and APM tools.
The Edgemond Advantage
Enterprise-grade benefits for your monitoring infrastructure.
Lossless Data Capture
Secure the full payload. TAPs capture physical layer errors and malformed packets that switches discard.
Architectural Integrity
TAPs have no IP or MAC address. They are invisible to the network and cannot be scanned or compromised.
Zero Network Latency
Maintain line-rate performance. TAPs do not process traffic; they copy it, ensuring zero impact on speed.
Critical Use Cases
Unfiltered Forensics
Provide an unaltered, time-stamped copy of traffic for incident response and breach post-mortems.
Continuous Compliance
Meet regulatory requirements (HIPAA, PCI-DSS) by ensuring all sensitive data is captured for auditing.
Intrusion Detection (IDS)
Feed clean, unsampled data to your security stack to prevent threats from slipping through bottlenecks.
