BOS Wins Two Showcase Product Excellence
Awards
BOSaNOVA Native and BOSaNOVA Access win in two categories
Teradyon,
Israel April 19, 1998 At the COMMON Spring 1998 Conference and Expo, BOS, a
leading manufacturer of PC-to-Host connectivity solutions, received two Best Product
awards in the 1998 AS/400 Technology SHOWCASE Product Excellence recognition program. BOSaNOVA
Native won an award in the Emulation category and BOSaNOVA Access won in the
category for Remote Control solutions.
BOSaNOVA Native is a complete emulation product
line which includes hardware and/or software kits featuring a 100% IBM-compatible Twinax
card with Stealth TechnologyTM, 5250
display/printer emulation software, and 32-session APPC display/printer emulation
software.
BOSaNOVA Access was the first-ever PC-based
Twinax-Async gateway system. BOSaNOVA Access provides a cost-effective solution for
distributing AS/400 and System/3x sessions to remote PCs using Asynchronous lines. It
allows multiple remote users to receive host sessions using standard modems over
point-to-point, X.25, and standard telephone lines. Unlike the "black box"
approach of others, BOSaNOVA Access enables flexible configuration and it supports up to
18 simultaneous remote users to access a total of 28 host sessions, with each user
accessing a maximum of seven sessions.
BOS develops, produces, and markets solutions for IBM midrange-to-PC and LAN
connectivity, including Internet/intranet, emulation, gateways, and GUI. Innovative
technologies have positioned BOS as an important player in the IBM midrange connectivity
field. The companys Lynk subsidiary specializes in remote LAN and telephony access
solutions, and its Surf Communications Solutions affiliate develops software
implementations of modem protocols for the telephone network. The company's stock is
traded on Nasdaq under the symbol BOSCF.
