<p>I was recently looking for something similar and came across this network tap, though it costs a bit more, $60 I think.</p>

<p>I was specifically troubleshooting an Ethernet flow control problem and wanted a network tap (or hub) that would also duplicate the flow control frames instead of the device itself interpreting them as is the case in typical port mirroring in various switches. The creator of this Shark Tap sent me one with a tweaked firmware to enable flow control duplication for me and it ended up working perfectly for me and I was able to get a switch hardware vendor to fix a bug in their code.</p>
<p>Now looking I see they are currently unavailable, which is too bad. I hope they become available again soon as I was planning on ordering another one or two as a spare.</p>
<p>My point, besides sharing a nice anecdote, you can additionally search for Ethernet network taps as well as plain hubs.</p>

Through the years and the multiple moves, I've dwindled down to only one left. Online searches find very few results, and quite a few of them are just mislabeled switches. Does anyone here know where to grab a couple, or have a few collecting dust on a shelf they'd be willing to part with?
