EtherNet/IP Taps
1783-ETAP, 1783-ETAP1F and 1783-ETAP2F taps allow devices that do not
support embedded switch technology to connect to linear and DLR networks.
Each tap supports:
• a device port on the front of the tap to connect to other devices.
• two network ports to connect the tap to linear and DLR networks.
• the functionality to divide an Ethernet network into segments and direct
ne
twork traffic more efficiently than using repeating hubs.
• the functionality to connect one of the tap ports to a single device
segmen
ts the network so you can dedicate bandwidth to that device.
• multiple simultaneous communication between devices on different
ports
.
