You can use the ODBC driver that comes with your runtime installation. In order to have them installed you must either do a full installation or selected them when you do a customized installation. The typical installation won't install them.

Furthermore it is recommended to set up the database accordingly for a secondary login broker dedidcated to SQL clients:

Plus, you need to set up the SQL security if you've not already done so - it is not setup out-of-the-box:
