Abstract
Embodiments are disclosed for tap modules having integrated splitters and aggregated multi-fiber tap output connectors. Tap modules are configured to receive optical input/output signals from optical input/output fibers connected to multiple network devices within a network communication system. The tap modules include splitters that are configured to generate multiple tap output signals that are proportional, lower-energy copies of optical signals being communicated between the network devices. These tap output signals are then provided to aggregated multi-fiber tap output connectors for the tap modules. These multi-fiber tap output connectors can then be utilized to connect to other network monitoring devices, such as network monitoring tool systems and/or network tool optimizing systems. The aggregated multi-fiber tap output connectors are configured to operate at a higher aggregated rate as compared to the optical input/output signals.
