The Media Conversion Challenge
• What if your monitoring tool has a different media
interface than the link you are tapping?
• What if you have two endpoints with different media
interfaces?
• What if you need to extend the reach of a link?

Competitive Analysis
• Very few vendors offer 1G and 10G media converters and
converter Taps
• Net Opitcs has the market for straight 1G and 10G media
converters practically to itself
• VSS Monitoring competes with Net Optics on the most
popular Converter Taps (fiber to copper)
• VSS Monitoring offers a wide range of other converter Taps,
but it is probably not a big enough market for Net Optics to
bother with
