Transdata is a trademark of Siemens and the family name for
Communication/WAN Hardware (back from the 60s thru early 90s)
for mainframe sstems. There have also been some 'Intelligent
Terminals', like the 9753 that have been in fact 8080 based
CP/M systems.

But I guess the name is just coincidence.
