What would you do with RS-232 and RS-485?

After your training to become a cage fighter, I presume?
I have a 485 adapter in my bag for BACnet and Modbus communications.
And what the hell, add RS-422 while you're at it. And a parallel port! And the left side expansion port they used to have on the Amiga 500 and 1000!
And some ISDN BRI ports. And ATM and FDDI. And something I can do X.25 over. Oh, and Token Ring.
UART consoles and model train control systems come to mind.
You’d be surprised to know how much of the world’s manufacturing infrastructure still uses it.
-485 is superior. Everyone knows it
