Passive network tap device

TLDR
In this article, a high impedance tap circuit is electrically connected to the network connection path, and comprises an isolation transformer and active buffer element, and a power interruption to said tap circuit does not affect network communications.
Abstract
A tap device comprises a network entry connection, a network exit connection, and a network interconnection path there between. A high impedance tap circuit is electrically connected to the network connection path, and comprises an isolation transformer and active buffer element. Advantageously, a power interruption to said tap circuit does not affect network communications.

Duplex communication coupler system

Mcgrane Kevin
TL;DR: In this paper, a duplex coupler is used for coupling local telecommunication equipment, such as a modem, to a telephone line by replacing a single transformer with a number of transformers or other suitable forms of DC isolation device, which enables each transformer and its associated circuit network to be specifically tailored to optimize the operation of the coupler system.
