Profitap - USB Aggregated TAP
Allows users to observe the ENTIRE activity of the Ethernet link - SIMULTANEOUSLY presenting Tx and Rx to the analysing software exactly as it occurs on the network. As no buffering is required – unlike some competitive solutions.

Overview
- Just plug the ProfiTAP in between the link - connect to your LapTop/PC, select ProfiTAP as source and run your Analysis as used, or see basic faults via LED's, use the precise TimeStamp function to investigate the monitored traffic or even reduce the data being monitored with the MAC/IP Filters "down" at the ProfiTAP hardware.
- It comes complete with all accessories required to make a successful analysis as easy as possible
- Profi-TAP MT10/100AGG is a straight forward solution. In-Line it sees and monitors all 7 protocol layers. It captures and merges full-duplex traffic at wire-speed (200Mbit) and requires only one (1) USB 2.0 (480Mb) Port.
- It is invisible to the network and does not interfere in auto negotiation/speed or duplex settings.
- The Permanent Network Link feature guarantees permanent network connectivity and no Packet Loss, also if power fails or the USB port is disconnected.
- One LED shows Power (backside), two LEDs shows Link/Activity (frontside) and 2 more LEDs on the front indicate MAC Level faults as a visible status for the link.
- The Profi-TAP MT10/100AGG is designed to work with Third party software like Wireshark/Ethereal, Optiview, Etherpeek, etc. The included USB Key holds the necessary drivers and powerful Analyzer software - look for current list of supported Analysers.
- The carrying pouch protects the Tap and USB key. It fits easily in the laptop carrying case.
