The Key for Keeping your Network Safe and Secure
Bypass TAPs can support active in-line network security and performance tools. They were designed to avoid the "single point of failure" problem with other security appliances.
In the event that an active tool fails, wither due to a hardware malfunction, power loss, or software problem, a bypass TAP will keep the link flowing, while a redundant path can be activated. This way it acts as a fail-safe point of access, for in-line network monitoring tools.

Bypass Netwrok TAP for Optimal Network Security
Profitap Bypass Network TAP is an intelligent device that keeps the network link operational even when in-line security appliances become unavailable.
Placed in front of in-line tools, it represents a fail-safe solution that continuously checks their availability. Therefore, if the tools’ availability is compromised in any way, the TAP automatically switches to a bypass mode, maintaining the network link up until the issue is fixed.
