HDX TAP Cassettes provide real-time monitoring in the network or SAN environment. The traffic analysis point (TAP) is a passive device that enables channel traffic to be reviewed for anomalies in network security or performance. In the HDX cassette, the TAP is part of the structured cabling environment and eliminates the need for an additional panel to deploy the TAPs. Having the TAP inside the HDX cassette increases the density and reduces the fiber footprint required in a cabinet.
