Aha, finally a similar product ("Share Serial ports"). Oops.... $111......

Oh and the generic serial port 'splitters' only allow incoming data to be
distributed to multiple virtual ports. VirtualPlex is only passing NMEA data
(discrete sentences) and can therefore also accept data from multiple
virtual ports and send it back to the master or hardware port without
creating garbage.

And VirtualPlex has always been 49 euros, which amounted to $39 a couple of
years ago, but since the value of the US dollar went down the drain....
