(ie one would think that a serial modem could be plugged there). Suppose it's your UPS or a cutting machine, or a 3d printer.. not good things to randomly claim are modems. There is a procedure for identifying some serial devices via magic PnP sequences and it ought to be able to identify some modems that way. You can't however randomly assume.
