We also deployed the Shomiti taps but have moved to the intrusion.com SecureCom 6000
chassis-based system with multiple switch blades set into tap port pairs. This gave
us the same flexibility as the Shomiti taps with a cleaner install and the capability
to monitor 100MB switched segments. With the intrusion.com hardware we are able to
get 4 tap port pairs per 12 port switch blade installed (IN-OUT-MIRROR).
