MatrikonOPC Tunneller 3.0 (now with encryption and data compression) provides an easy,
reliable and secure way to communicate between networked computers. It does away with the headaches
typically associated with DCOM configuration. No longer are different protocols, security settings
or locations a factor when sharing data between computers. This is achieved by simply installing
MatrikonOPC Tunneller on the OPC client and OPC server nodes and then telling the Tunneller client
where the Tunneller server exists.

If you require redundancy in your tunnelled connections,
MatrikonOPC's
Redundancy Broker can be used along with
MatrikonOPC Tunneller.
MatrikonOPC Tunneller secures the exchange of OPC Data between
OPC Clients
and OPC Servers. It works directly with the
MatirkonOPC Security Gateway to
harden any real-time OPC
Achitecture. MatrikonOPC Security Gateway protects all
real-time OPC
servers with unprecedented per-user-per-tag level data access
control. Use
MatrikonOPC Tunneller and MatrikonOPC Security Gateway together to
build a
complete OPC security solution.
The new Encryption feature in MatrikonOPC Tunneller 3.0 enables it to secure your
communications from both inside and outside system attacks by hackers. Users are
provided with more control over the security of their OPC systems.
The Data Compression feature of the new MatrikonOPC Tunneller enables users to
reduce the load on their networks. Data sent over satellite and other per-Megabyte
connections can be reduced for significant cost savings. Historical data can be
compressed to a size much smaller than the original data, all without any data loss.
MatrikonOPC Tunneller solves 6 major issues encountered using OPC over DCOM:
1. Cross Domains and Workgroups
Authentication difficulties make DCOM connections across different domains or
workgroups extremely difficult or impossible. Leap past this limitation with
OPC Tunneller. Essentially, if you can ping the PC, you can get to it with
Tunneller.
2. DCOM and OPC through firewalls
DCOM uses a wide variety of ports, making it almost impossible to configure a
firewall with. Not to mention, DCOM is a prime target for viruses and worms
such as Blaster. OPC Tunneller lets us firewall our PC’s for maximum security
against viruses and worms, yet still allows us all the benefits of OPC.
3. DCOM needs a lot of bandwidth
DCOM works best in environments with low latency and high bandwidth; typical
of an office LAN. This causes considerable difficulty when communicating over
satellite, modems, radio, and other bandwidth-limited communication types.
MatrikonOPC Tunneller features lossless data compression, which reduces load on
networks and saves money when paying per MB of data.
4. Timeouts and Disconnections
Plagued with timeouts? Need recovery faster than the unconfigurable 6 minute
timeout that comes with DCOM? MatrikonOPC Tunneller has configurable timeouts
to work best with your network and reconnects to OPC Servers in a fraction of
the time.
5. Data Privacy
OPC Tunneller now features data stream encryption. "Man in the middle" type
of attacks can now be thwarted, because the OPC data is not readable without
the key. Encryption can be selected from 64, 96, or 128 bit AES. OPC Tunneller
can also limit client connections from only the IP addresses you define.
6. Easy Configuration
Depending on your system, configuring DCOM just to the point of getting
communication can take days! OPC Tunneller reduces your integration time
to minutes!
Install Matrikon OPC Tunneller on both the OPC Client and OPC
Server nodes
On the client node, define an IP address or computer name to connect to.
Start communicating!
Communicate with multiple OPC servers and clients simultaneously:
A single Matrikon OPC Tunneller is able to communicate with multiple OPC
servers or clients from multiple vendors simultaneously.
Fast, easy and reliable
Optimized for low-bandwidth infrastructures
Uses only a single port
