- I don't know any, but this connector was meant for internal modems.
- This was not a bad idea after all since this would have made it
- possible to stay 100% compatible with programs hacking the serial
- port directly. However the only internal modem I know (and used),
- the Supra 2400zi, didn't use this connector. By the way, you can't
- use internal and external port at the same time, they are just
- two connectors for the same port actually.
