Correct Wiring: When installing a Fiber Tap, it is important to make sure that the Tx and Rx fibers are connected to the respective ports on the Fiber Tap. When wired correctly, the traffic incoming on an Rx port will be split before being sent to two separate Tx ports (One copy to the other Network device, the other copy to Monitor).

Reverse Wiring: If the fibers are connected backwards, light will not be received on the monitoring port. This is because the internal coupler that splits the light is unidirectional.

To Avoid Reverse Wiring: Reverse wiring can be difficult to catch initially, since an incorrectly cabled Fiber Tap will still send light between the network ports and connectivity will be seen on both network endpoints. Be sure to check the for light on the monitor ports as well as the network ports when installing the Fiber Tap.
