Hi Gary,
I hope this is what you need,
This was written by a hardware engineer after my request
about a similer problem..

Refer to any of the Hardware Configuration Guides
under the section heading "Serial Port Configuration and Speed".
"The serial ports are programmed I/O devices (rather than DMA devices)
and have only a three-character hardware buffer each although they
support both high-speed output (up to 19.2 kbaud) and input (up to
9.6 kbaud)."
This statement holds true for Sun-2, Sun-3, and Sun-4 and goes back
as far as the Aug 1984 Config Guide and as current as the Nov 1989
Config Guide.

Gerry
