GigaPORT Expansion Module for Gigamon GigaVUE 420 and GigaVUE MP

The GigaPort expansion module adds four copper and/or fiber-optical Gigabit Ethernet ports to the GigaVUE-420 or GigaVUE-MP. Each port can be independently set as 10/100/1000 Base-T RJ-45 Ethernet, or 1000 Base-Sx/Lx/Zx Ethernet ports with multimode or singlemode SFP.

Model Numbers:

PRT-400: Expansion module with 4 RJ-45 and 4 SFP cages

Optional Accessories:

SFP (optical pluggable transceiver):

SFP502: Sx 850 nm, multimode (550 Meter)

SFP503: Lx 1310 nm, singlemode (10 km)

SFP504: Zx 1550 nm, singlemode (40 km)

Gigamon 10 GigaTAP

The 10-GigaTAP module when installed in the back of the GigaVUE-420 provides the ability to split and copy inbound and outbound optical data streams. Replicated data is then forwarded to network monitoring tools at 1 or 10 Gbps. Gigamon's 10-GigaTAP is available in three varieties to accommodate any fiber optic installation.

Model Numbers:

PRT-400: Expansion module with 4 RJ-45 and 4 SFP cages

Optional Accessories:

SFP (optical pluggable transceiver):

SR-LC/Multimode, 850nm

LR-LC/Singlemode, 1310nm

ER-LC/Singlemode, 1550nm

Gigamon GigaTAP-Sx, GigaTAP-Lx

The GigaTAP is a dual optical splitter module. adds 4 optical splitter ports to the GigaVUE-420 or GigaVUE-MP. GigaTAP-Sx and Lx modules provide the ability to tap two fiber optic Gigabit Ethernet links (1000BASE-SX or 1000BASE-Lx). The GigaTAP-Sx/Lx modules use a passive fiber optic splitter to tap the in-line signal flowing through the module for distribution to the GigaVUE-420 or GigaVUE-MP tool ports. There are two pairs of LC ports for tapping two different MM or SM FDX fiber links. Split ratio 70/30.

Gigamon GigaTAP-Sx, GigaTAP-Lx

TAP-202: MultiMode SR 850nm
TAP-203: SingleMode LR 1310nm

Gigamon GigaTAP-Tx

The GigaTAP-Tx module when installed in GigaVUE-420 or GigaVUE-MP provides the ability to TAP two copper Gigabit Ethernet links, copying traffic to specified tool ports as it flows throught the TAP. There are two pairs of RJ45 connectors per module. Each pair TAPs a single 10/10/1000 Base-T FDX Ethernet link. The GigaTAP-Tx features fault tolerance and link failure propagation. Magnetic relays maintain the link even under power fail conditions. GigaTAP-Tx ports can be used as either network or tool ports.

Link TAP Mechanism:

Electronically repeats the link signals when in ACTIVE mode and port-pairing is established.

GigaTAP model numbers (copper only):

TAP-201: Dual copper 10/100/1000 ethernet TAP module

Gigamon GigaLINK-Cu (10G Copper)

GigaLINK modules provide high-speed connectivity to 10 Gbps links and can be used as network, tool, or stacking ports. GigaLINK modules can be installed in the x1, x2, x3, and x4 slots at the rear of the unit. Slots x1 and x2 can be used as stacking ports to extend your Data Access Network across multiple chassis.

Optional Accessories:

Stacking cable: CX4 copper cable (5/15 Meters)

Model Numbers:

CBL-005: 5 meter cable

CBL-015: 15 meter cable

Gigamon GigaLINK-SR, GigaLINK-LR, GigaLINK- ER (10G Optical)

The GigaLINK -SR, -LR, or -ER adds one 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber optic port to the GigaVUE-420. A single 10GigE XFP is included in each module.

GLK-312: 10 Gig port with MultiMode SR 850 nm (200 Meter) transceiver, LC connector

GLK-313: 10 Gig port with SingleMode LR 1310 nm (10 km) transceiver, LC connector

GLK-314: 10 Gig port with SingleMode ER 1550 nm (40 km) transceiver, LC connector

Optional 10GigE XFP transceivers:

XFP-502: SR 850 nm (200 Meter)

XFP-503: LR 1310 nm (10 km)

XFP-504: ER 1550 nm (40 km)

G-TAP | Value Priced High Density Optical TAP System

For under $5,000, you can TAP up to 8 opitical uplinks with the modular G-TAP system. G-TAP is the highest density and most economical optical tapping system in the industry. The modular G-TAP design allows management of individual TAPs/links without effecting other TAPs/links and enabling a mixture of 10G and 1G or single-mode and multi-mode in the same chassis.

The external G-TAP system compliments Gigamon's industry leading GigaVUE data access switch, combining high TAP density, optimal use of rack space and value pricing to create a flexible, one-stop connectivity solution.
