In PCWeek September 25, 1984, page 5 there is mention of a board
that allows you to add COM3: to COM18: to your PC or AT (and
requires DOS 3.0?).  This will get around the three user restriction
in Xenix for the PC/AT.  Quoted prices start around $570US for
four more ports.  This includes the $75 for HostBOIS software.

It's called "The Hostess Multiuser Host Adapter".
