I know about the higher speeds but i doubt the OP does. They're
focusing on cables for a job that is way more suitable for a "real"
network and (as you say) forget to mention any other relevant details.
My guess would be that if you have high-speed UARTs, then you know
what you're doing and have a notion of the cables you need (and
recognize that this setup is basically a Bad Idea (tm)). I realized
later that OP mentioned 3 machines, not 2, making "real network" an
even more suitable solution.

PS: have you ever done mbit+ over standard serial cabling ?
