Netoptics 4xN GigaBit In-Line Matrix Switch

By: Netoptics 4xN GigaBit In-Line Matrix Switch

Net Optics 4xN GigaBit In-Line Matrix Switches enhance LAN visibility by providing

access across multiple GigaBit network links for up to four distributed analyzers. The

physical layer connections through the Matrix Switch eliminate the need to reconnect

and reconfigure analyzers for each new monitoring task. This flexibility instantly

improves ease of use and return on investment.

The 4xN Matrix Switch supports simultaneous passive monitoring of any four links

connected to the Matrix Switch, each with a separate distributed analyzer. Monitored

links can be selected statically, for automatic roaming, or for a custom monitoring

pattern with PortRover management software. Models with 4x8 and 4x16 port

densities are available.

For spot-checking and long-term monitoring, the monitored links can be set and easily

changed with a simple click in the PortRover interface. When greater coverage is

needed, an automatic mode continuously scans all ports, monitoring each port for a

configurable time period. Network administrators can have complete control over

monitoring activities by creating and saving custom monitoring patterns with PortRover

management software.

Passive, Secure Technology

• Provides complete cross-link visibility at 1000 Mbps without data stream

interference or introducing a point of failure

• Passes all full-duplex traffic (including errors) from all layers for comprehensive

troubleshooting

• Redundant power ensures monitoring uptime

• No IP address is needed for the Matrix Switch or monitoring device, enhancing

monitoring security

Ease of Use

• PortRover management software provides control over which links are being

monitored, including the ability to program and save custom monitoring patterns

• LED indicators on the Matrix Switch allow for quick status checks

• Front-mounted network connectors for easy installation and operation

• Flexible design with removable feet allows for either rack-mount or stand alone use

• Tested and compatible with all major manufacturers’ monitoring devices, including

protocol analyzers, probes, and intrusion detection/prevention systems
