As a former owner of a Newton:

The keyboard connected with the standard "Apple serial connector", which 
is the same type connector I used to hook it up to a StyleWriter 
printer, or to the computer for upload/download. So, it was a serial 
connector, not ADB.

There is a web page which refers to the serial interface in passing:

Also, look here:

Hope this helps.
