Bypass TAPs
Bypass TAPs provide fail-safe access for active in-line network security and performance tools. In the event that an active in-line tool becomes unavailable, either due to a hardware malfunction, power loss, software problem, or planned maintenance, bypass TAPs ensure the network link stays operational.
