If you cut the transmit wires on the cable the sniffer will be undetectable. Moral of the story, there is no substitute for physical security. However, if someone is sniffing the network, you must assume one of two things: 1. It's a lamer with too much time on his hands. 2. The data has value. If it is #2 then the data must be retrieved physically or transmitted outbound from your net to a destination. This is where the fun starts.
