Why don't they just release the actual slide so we can read it for ourselves like the 117K figure we learned is the sum of the NSA targets?

As an aside, I recommend NetOptics, they have quality taps- small footprint too, you can get eight in 1 RU.

Be sure you know what the light level tolerances are on your receivers at each end though. That will tell you if you need a 50/50, 60/40, 70/30
