The MacEnhancer is an expansion box originally developed in 1985 by Microsoft for Apple Computer's original Macintosh.Plugged into either the Macintosh's serial printer or modem ports, the MacEnhancer provides IBM-standard printer and serial ports as well as a passthrough for the Mac-standard serial port, for a net gain of three peripheral ports.

GeoPort is a serial data system used on some models of the Apple Macintosh that could be externally clocked to run at a 2 megabit per second data rate. [1] GeoPort slightly modified the existing Mac serial port pins to allow the computer's internal DSP hardware or software to send data that, when passed to a digital-to-analog converter, emulated various devices such as modems and fax machines.

MacTerminal was the first telecommunications and terminal emulation application software program available for the Mac.MacTerminal enabled users to connect via modem or serial port to bulletin board systems and online services (e.g., The Source, CompuServe), and to other computers.
With the release of the iMac in 1998 the traditional Mac serial port—and thus, the ability to use both LocalTalk and PhoneNET—disappeared from new models of Macintosh. LocalTalk-to-Ethernet bridges were introduced to allow legacy devices (especially printers) to function on newer networks. For very old Macintosh computers, LocalTalk remains ...
ZTerm is a shareware terminal emulator for Macintosh operating system.It was introduced in 1992 for System 7 and has been updated to run on macOS.Its name comes from its use of the ZModem file transfer protocol, which ZTerm implemented in a particularly high-performance package.
Apple Desktop Bus (ADB) is a proprietary [1] bit-serial peripheral bus connecting low-speed devices to computers. It was introduced on the Apple IIGS in 1986 as a way to support low-cost devices like keyboards and mice, enabling them to be connected together in a daisy chain without the need for hubs or other devices.
