FYI:

The new Cisco 16 port terminal server ( 516-CS ) supports full modem
control and lists for $3995. It does telnet,rlogin and tn3270. Supports
PPP/CSLIP/XRemote and full routing. You can get an option for LAT. 
However, the top speed is 38400 . The ASM model does 57600.

I think the Livingstone PortMaster (sp?) is another cheap terminal
server with most of these features. It lists less than the Cisco
