Assuming it has an "integrated" keyboard :), it has to be a Zentec Zephyr.
It was built like a tank and was quite fast for its time (supported a faster
data rate than the Zentec Cobra - a later model with swiveling head and
detached keyboard).

Its termcap/terminfo entry is usually known as "zen30".  I was quite
familiar with it from my days at Intel.
