Interesting hardware. I'd like to see more about the software interface. CP/M has a CP/NET product for networking, it might be good to ensure that this product is able to service CP/NET clients and servers, as well as interface with the TCP/IP SocketsCP/NET servers and clients I've been working on.

The software interface is extremely abstracted. Each target system gets an adaptation that makes the most sense for their target system, and the protocol adapters are shared between all the targets.etc.)
There is a detailed zoom call where I spend about 3 hours walking through the code-base. :)

Essentially, think of it like a mainframe I/O channel processor, highly abstracted, simple commands (OPEN, CLOSE, READ, WRITE, STATUS), and you can change the state of the channel to do functions outside of these atomics (such as accepting connections,

Good to know. The reason I asked was that the product information I've seen thus far indicated some things like emulation of disks and other I/O (printers, modems, etc). If ordinary TCP/IP sockets can be opened/listened, then it should suffice. Thiswould be similar (in concept) to the WizNET module I've implemented CP/NET on before.
