MultiLoad II/RCUII has the ability to multi-drop onto a RS232 line on COM 1:

4.2.2.4 Ethernet – Host/TMS Communications
The Host/TMS Computer System can be connected to the MultiLoad II/ RCU II using Ethernet.
The Ethernet controller on revision 2.0 CPU boards uses HP Auto-MDIX technology. By
automatically detecting the signaling on the connected device, the transceiver will configure the
port settings automatically. Thus, the choice of a straight through or cross over cable no longer
has to be made—either will work.
Ethernet is available on MultiLoad II/RCUII with revision 2.0 or higher CPU boards.
