IBM-PC Kermit (not to be confused with Z-100 Kermit) can do transfers at up to 115Kb, but it intercepts the interrupts. One small problem: The highest *standard* IBM-PC baud rate is 9600 baud. Above that, you can't get within spec. So you *can* talk from one IBM-PC to another above 9600 baud, but don't expect to talk to *standard* machines like the Z-100. I tried it. It don't work.
