Are they 50 pin Centronics? If they are, it could be a telephone tester.
The Centronics port (at 50 pins) would take a "whip" and let you test
all the lines on a PBX or straight telephone cable.
If they are 36 pin Centronics I really don't know what used NRZ encoding
in the early 80's except tape drives - or maybe its a tester for a radio
land line from studio to tramsmitter - it does have the Mod-ulation BNC
connection.
Other than that - I'm stumped 8-) Who made it - NEC?
I'm stumped too :). I just checked and they are 36 pin Centronics
connectors. I can't rememeber where the computer it was attached to
came from, but a friend of mine wanted it and now he has it. And yes,
it was also manufactured by NEC.
