It's probably a plug and play card.  You can try fooling around with
the ISA PnP package in the experimental section and getting the card to
assign some adddresses/IRQs.  There will probably be some sort of
"minimal" setting which will correspond to a 16550 comm port interface.

At least, I tried this on a consumer-grade Toshiba 6130 which had some
proprietary ISA modem, and with some fidgeting made it work.
