Gateway Z80 ISA cards

I've come across two full-length eight-bit ISA cards from Gateway
Communications. The main chips on it is a family of Zilog chips: Z80 CPU,
2?SCC, Z80 CTC. The blanking plate fatures a micro-D50, the same kind found on
SCSI cards. It's not uncommon to find Zilog chips on SCSI controllers, but
that connector was AFAIk introduced with SCSI-2, and an 8-bit SCSI-2 card
seems like an odd thing to do.
The card is labelled WNIM Z80 and is copyrighted 1990. The farther end of the
card features two 10-pin headers marked PORT 1,2 and PORt 3,4 respectively.

What could this board be for?
