The HUB for communications (hub4com) allows to receive data and signals from one COM or TCP port, modify and send it to a number of other COM or TCP ports and vice versa.

Serial terminal program for engineering. Ideal for development, reverse engineering, debugging, datalogging and capture, and automatic test. The website is a comprehensive manual for Realterm. It has an comprehensive ActiveX/COM automation support so it can be used a serial component by other programs. An extensive commandline interface supports batch files and simple automatic test programming. Commands can be sent to running instances, and commands can be stored and run in files. [ActiveX](http://realterm.sourceforge.net/index.html#ActiveX_Interface) and [Command Line](http://realterm.sourceforge.net/index.html#Command_Line_Parameters) commands are well documented.
