General Information

The ProfiShark 10G is a portable fiber optic TAP and
troubleshooter, and provides visibility into 10G fiber optic
networks. It accepts two SFP+ modules (SR, LR, ER), and sends
the incoming traffic to a USB 3.0 output.
The ProfiShark 10G can be set to either SPAN or In-Line mode.
SPAN mode receives traffic from any connected SFP+ modules,
while In-Line mode receives and transmits traffic between both
ports.
The ProfiShark 10G captures packets of all sizes and types,
and provides real time traffic statistics, SFP+ module and fiber
information, and various traffic capture settings and options. It
also incorporates hardware filters, deep packet inspection, and
packet slicing.
