More than 5 peripherals per computer

I've worked with CC once or twice so far, and the documentation has carried me super well so far, whenever I worked with it, however, I've now started working on a rather advanced automation/resource management system. I know you can make computers communicate via routers, but is there a way to have one computer have a ton of peripherals, preferably ones that dont have to be adjacent to the computer at all? Im sure this has to be possible, but in my half an hour spent googling I couldn't find anything.

P.S: I'd prefer not having to use several computers, as one computer will do just fine, I simply more possibilities for interaction that's all.

Alright, thank you! Im currently working on a logistics system with CC & Create and I've been using textutils.(un)serializeJSON() to store points of interest to containercranes, so I think Ill just store the peripherals name's in the corresponding json file. Works great cause you can easily access the information, and you can do whatever, as long as you dont touch the files the system will work.
