Network TAPs | Garland Technology

Network test access points (TAPs) are hardware tools that allow you to access and monitor your network. Garland Technology manufacturers a complete line of network TAPs from passive, listen only TAPs - to active, in-line TAPs to feed your security tools as well as in-line security packet broker systems that support filtering, aggregation and load balancing. Garland Technology's network TAPs let you see every bit, byte and packet.^®

Garland Technology Network TAPs are manufactured and tested in the USA.^®
