Network Critical, the leader in Access Technology Solutions, provides lab-certified, innovative, carrier-grade TAP solutions that enable complete access to network traffic across various network media. Network Critical TAPs are used in conjunction with IDS/IPS appliances, analyzers, probes and more, all while providing 100% network visibility and zero packet loss.

The complete line of Access Technology Solutions offered by Network Critical is different from traditional tapping technologies. Because the products make a copy of a network's traffic, they isolate themselves from the live network and are able to collect all traffic passing through the network without introducing latency into it. This reduces network downtime while ensuring the network is fully compliant. The result is that all traffic is seen without impacting the flow of traffic along the live network.
