Network taps, each of which includes a pair of couplers, are integrated into a patch panel to provide a low cost and efficient way to analyze data on a communications network. Each pair of couplers is associated with one of the directional links of the pair of directional links that constitute a bidirectional network. The pair of couplers split the data signals that are transmitted by the cables, constituting the link to be tapped, which are attached to the pair of couplers. A first portion of the data signal remains in the network link while a second portion of the data signal is diverted from the tap to a network analysis device. In this way data signals of the communications network are analyzed by network analysis devices without interrupting the transmission of data signals across the communications network.
