RF Taps are commonly used in commercial or complex RF distribution networks. Where a splitter splits the signal evenly, a tap splits the signal unevenly.
For example: A 10 storey hotel has antenna mounted on the roof the antenna signal runs down a riser and splits off at each floor. If a standard splitter were used at the top floor then half of the signal would go to level 10, while half of the signal goes on to floors 1-9. This is not a desirable situation and would lead to an unbalanced system where the signal levels on floor 10 would be high and the signal levels on floor 1 would be low. In this situation a tap would be used. In this example, the OUT port would continue down the riser, and the TAP port would be used for each floor. In the 10 floor hotel, a higher tap rating (ie 25dB) would be used at the top and lower tap ratings (ie 5dB) used for the lower floor
