Even simpler: it's the T-shaped BNC coax adapter you use to connect a PC
to the coax network. If you don't have a BNC/coax input on your PC any
more, you could use a simple (older?) SOHO office hub that features
both, BNC and RJ45 connectors, plug the T into BNC and your PC into one
of the RJ45 connectors.

For monitoring you can use basically any ethernet analyzer, ethereal,
etherape, tcpdump, whatever...

Bye
