I don't know for the other BSDs, but at least FreeBSD ships with a
command called "tip" that you can use out of the box for simple
communications.  Remember to use the "cua"-style devices, as they
don't insist on the DCD line being asserted.  If you want more, I
think you can find any number of communication programs in the ports
collection:

. kermit
. minicom
. Taylor UUCP has a cu command that offers a bit more than the
  tip-based one from the base system
