what you're looking for ?!?

I do remember having used something like this (not the above - those  
were delivered by the hardware mfg) for the Distributed Sniffer  
product, back in the day (I am not even sure who owns that product  
nowadays), for sniffing the serial lines, so I am assuming signaling  
and electrical requirements would be the same for what you want.
