A serial port is any port that transmits and receives data serially, or one piece at a time. This is as opposed to a parallel port, which can transmit and receive data along multiple paths at the same time. RS-232, USB, FireWire, PS/2, and ADB are all examples of serial ports. In common usage, the term "serial port" is usually used to refer to RS-232 ports.
