As a vendor partner member of the MatrikonOPC global partner network, CNL will standardise on MatrikonOPC for its OPC data connectivity solutions. The MatrikonOPC vendor partner programme enables software and hardware vendors to provide their customers with world class connectivity software and support, while keeping the vendors’ resources focused on their core areas of expertise.

CNL is a world leader in physical security information management (PSIM) software and provides complete integrated situation management. CNL’s technology is deployed to secure major cities, critical infrastructure and global commerce and to address key issues such as asset protection, energy reduction, process compliance and business advantage in converged physical environments.

“While CNL has a generic OPC driver, in many cases the amount of data—particularly from legacy BMS and oil and gas systems—is best collected by a specialist provider with exceptional reliability. MatrikonOPC is a leader in this field, so a technology partnership with them is a logical step,” said Jon Lunnerfeldt, Technology Alliance Program Manager at CNL Software.

“Delivering exceptional value to our customers is one of the cornerstones of our strategy for long term growth. MatrikonOPC will work closely with CNL to help provide its customers with the right products and on-going live support to ensure their OPC architectures are secure and reliable,” said Drew Brydon, Vendor Partner Program Manager MatrikonOPC.
