Abstract

A zero packet loss network tap includes first and second network ports, first and second tap ports, and a signal separator configured to receive the data stream from at least one of the first or second network port and pass through the data stream to the network port not providing the data stream and obtain while passing through the data stream a first signal portion substantially comprising the first signal component and a second signal portion substantially comprising the second signal component. Devices are configured to receive the separated signal portion from the signal separator and provide the separated signal portions to the tap ports.
