EdgeSafe Bypass | M100G1xx
1. Introduction
The Garland Technology’s EdgeSafe Bypass TAP (hereafter referred to as the M100G1AC) is an active
external bypass switch that protects network integrity from network failures and enhances network
maintenance. It generates heartbeat packets, and by detecting the flow of heartbeat packets, it controls the
operation mode of the network.
A Garland M100G1AC 1U Unit is a 1U host system which supports up to two 100G modules. A 100G module
supports one segment.
The following figure shows a Garland M100G1AC 1U Unit with two 100G modules.

100 Gigabit Single-mode Fiber (100GBase-LR4) network standards. Either 100G module includes two
MPO/LC ports for network connection and two CFP4/CXP ports for the attached inline network system.
