Although technically correct that Putty can not do 3270, if the original
poster can ssh into a Linux machine with the x3270 suite installed, they
can use c3270 to access their 3270 based hosts. c3270 is ncurses based
and should work over a standard telnet/ssh connection.

AFAIK there is no such functionality. Why not use x3270 or any of the
other TN3270E clients?
I'd advise you to diplomatically ask management what the real
requirement is and to suggest that you can better satisfy it if they
don't impose what they hope is a solution before analyzing all of the
options.
