Baltimore, MD (COMMON Expo), October 22, 2000 - B.O.S. Better On-line Solutions (NASDAQ: BOSC) today announced that it is now shipping a new version of its e-Twin@x Controller™, a complete hardware and software solution that provides a secure, encrypted connection to the AS/400 over the Internet or WAN and empowers local or remote Twinax networks to support TCP/IP. The new version contains enhanced hardware and software components for better reliability in various Twinax infrastructures, such as fiber optics cables, twisted pair wiring, and active star hubs.
"The e-Twin@x Controller continues to provide the best solution to bridging Twinax and Ethernet environments," said Ed Cover, Director of Sales for B.O.S. North America. "Organizations can maintain their Twinax equipment and cabling and still make the most out of TCP/IP enabled applications. Furthermore, in addition to supporting dial-in remote access to the AS/400, the e-Twin@x Controller provides low-cost, secure Virtual Private Network capability, making it the most versatile, sound investment a business can make in a controller today."
Other enhancements in the new version include new wizards for printing configuration (using CST Object Generator, CST Object Printing Test and CST Object Uploader), and automatic Windows NT-based installation programs for the TwinMail™ server (for e-Mail support on dumb Twinax terminals) and the SECURIT-e™ server (for secure connection over the Internet), continuing the e-Twin@x Controller tradition of ease of configuration.
