Overview
The e-Twin@x Controller is the only SNA-free, pure TCP/IP Controller in existence. It allows you to leverage your investment
in Twinax by supporting all Twinax display stations and printers (both SCS and IPDS), as well as existing cabling. When
used as a remote Controller, all SNA, AnyNet and MPTN traffic is eliminated, leaving your network with a single protocol:
pure TCP/IP, which is easy to configure and maintain, and is routable. The e-Twin@x Controller also supports remote
management via a Web browser, saving you valuable technical resources.

Advantages
Replaces SNA connectivity and Anynet protocol with simple, easy-to-configure TN5250e TCP/IP.
Serves as a secure, low cost connection from your remote branches to the AS/400 using the Internet, saving a fortune
in leased line expenses.
Allows configuration and management from a standard Web browser that accesses the Controller via dial up or over
the WAN; most changes can be done without restarting the Controller.
Includes a built-in 2- or 6-port* Remote Access Server (RAS), complete with AS/400 client RAS software, built-in
firewall and support for RADIUS standards.
Housed in a compact 1U communications Controller that fits into standard 19” rack-mount communications cabinets.
Provides IP over Twinax connection to a local or remote AS/400, allowing Twinax-attached PCs to benefit from IP
applications such as e-Mail, Web browsers and Microsoft Networking, while running up to 5 times faster when used
with BOS IP over Twinax drivers.
Supports up to 112 Twinax devices; upgrades to expand the number of devices supported from 8 up to 56, are
software-based and can be applied either on-site or remotely, via the Internet.
Provides an interface to Citrix Metaframe supporting Twinax technology or other corporate intranet computing for
PCs using IP over Twinax.
