Introduction
The STAP-BT-4X16 Copper SPAN Tap is a 16-port,
quad-output device that both increases your network
visibility and leverages your analyzers, probes and
security equipment by allowing you to monitor up
to four SPAN ports simultaneously. This improved
visibility accelerates network problem resolution,
reduces your downtime, increases productivity and
improves the bottom line.

• 10/100/1000BASE-T with standard RJ45 ports
• Leverage with a single STAP-BT-4X16 unit up
to four network applicances across a total of
16 SPAN or mirror ports
• Daisy-chain with standard USB cables up to
four STAP-BT-4X16 units to enable your network
access to a total of 64 SPAN or mirror ports
• Manage the Copper SPAN Tap either through
your monitoring device’s API or with Fluke
Networks MANAgents software
• Save network configuration schemes and
segment names with MANAgents software
• Reduce the need to travel on-site with

General Installation Notes
This quick reference guide is abbreviated for proficient
network technicians; detailed installation and configura-
tion steps are found in the Hardware Guide.
To connect the STAP-BT-4X16 to the network, refer
to Figure 2 and follow these steps:
1. Connect both power supplies to separate power
sources to eliminate power loss as a cause of failure.
The POWER 1 and 2LEDs will illuminate, indicating
that both power supplies are on. Either LED failing to
illuminate indicates a defective power source; replace
immediately to ensure redundant power integrity.
IMPORTANT
Do not exceed the maximum length of 100 meters
between end-points.
2. Connect one of the network cables from the
SPAN port on each network appliance to the
desired STAP-BT-4X16 NETWORK port connector.
NOTE
For NETWORK, TAP or DAISY RJ45 connectors,
integrated LEDs display line status and speed of each
port. See the LED Display Codes table.
3. Connect the TAP A RJ45 port on the Copper SPAN
Tap to the network appliance’s Network Interface
Card (NIC). The TAP A port will illuminate, indicating
link has been established. Repeat with TAP B, TAP C
and TAP D ports to other devices as needed.
4. Connect the MANAGEMENT port of the Copper
SPAN Tap to the network for remote console control.
Alternately, connect the CONTROL port to a local host
control console using the included quad-control cable.
5. After installation, the MANAgents software must be
installed on your management console. Please refer
to the MANAgents software guide for details.

The address for each STAP-BT-4X16 Copper SPAN Tap in
a daisy-chain must be set up prior to installation. Refer to
the Fluke Networks MANAgents software for more details.
Figure 3. STAP-BT-4X16 daisy-chain control connectivity diagram
Follow these steps to make interconnection between
multiple Copper SPAN Taps and network device links:
1. Connect SPAN ports from each network device to
one of the NETWORK ports on the Copper SPAN Tap.
NOTE
The network monitor tool must match the selected
network duplex speed.
2. Connect the TAP A port on the first Copper SPAN
Tap to the network monitor tool. The TAP A link
LED will illuminate, indicating successful link is made.
3. Connect other TAP ports to other monitoring tools as
desired. Verify each link by referring to port LEDs.
4. Connect the DAISY A port on the first Copper
SPAN Tap to the TAP A port on the next Copper
SPAN Tap. The TAP A port LED will illuminate.
5. Repeat by connecting other DAISY ports on the
primary Copper SPAN Tap to the respective TAP
ports on the following Copper SPAN Tap.
6. To add more Copper SPAN Taps to the daisy-chain
configuration, repeat steps 4 and 5, connecting the
DAISY ports on the previously chained Copper SPAN
Tap to the respective TAP ports on the successive
Copper SPAN Tap.
7. Connect the MANAGEMENT port on the first Copper
SPAN Tap to the network for remote control, or con-
nect the CONTROL USB port of the first Copper SPAN
Tap to a local console using the quad-control cable.
8. Connect the LINK USB port on the first Copper SPAN
Tap to the CONTROL port on the next Copper SPAN
Tap. Repeat with any other daisy-chained Copper
SPAN Taps.
9. Once installation is complete, the switch control
software must be configured to your network. Refer
to the Fluke Networks MANAgents software guide
and STAP-BT-4X16 hardware guide for more details.
