Data terminal
A data terminal, text terminal, or often just terminal (sometimes text console) is a serial computer interface for text entry and display. Original text terminals were electronic computer terminals connected to computers by a serial line, but later computers have built-in system consoles, and terminal emulator programs that work in a graphical desktop environment.
