Actually IBM includes a TN3270E Emulator within the “IBM Explorer for z/OS”. It
works fairly well.

It also integrates with most to the Development and Configuration Tools/Servers
IBM has out there. It runs on Windows, Mac OS, and Linux (the later two you
need to supply the Java JVM). If you also need to administer, interface, with
CICS and/or MQ, there are plugins for those as well.
The nice thing about it is it is maintained by IBM and supports all the current
TN3270 configuration options (full TLS 1.2 Security, all Unicode character set,
etc.).
