MatrikonOPC is pleased to announce the release of the MatrikonOPC Tunneller 3.0, now including encryption and lossless data compression. This new version provides users with an easy, reliable and secure way to enable OPC communication in a network environment.

No longer are cross-domains, firewalls, DCOM settings, or remote locations a factor when sharing OPC data between computers. Simply install MatrikonOPC Tunneller 3.0 on the OPC client and OPC server PCs and instantly gain access to your networked OPC data.

Built on top of MatrikonOPC's robust Tunneller platform, the enhanced encryption features help reduce the risk of unauthorized data access in an industrial environment. Users have more control over the security of their OPC systems while still getting increased value of maximum security against viruses and worms. The new MatrikonOPC Tunneller enhancements provide both total data privacy, and all the benefits of OPC open connectivity.

The Data Compression feature of the new MatrikonOPC Tunneller 3.0 reduces the load on networks. This reduction in the total data transferred not only increases network availability, it also reduces data transfer costs. Off shore oil platforms and geographically dispersed industrial environments will benefit from the use of MatrikonOPC's Tunneller 3.0. Data can be sent in a compressed format reducing the per-megabyte cost normally associated with normal satellite data transfer.

MatrikonOPC Tunneller 3.0 solves six major issues encountered using OPC over DCOM:

* Cross Domains and Workgroup

* DCOM and OPC through firewalls

* DCOM needs a lot of bandwidth

* Timeouts and Disconnections

* Data Privacy

* Ease of Configuration
