allied telesys sell such a beast (for 300-500$) as does Lanplex for a bit less
(the AT one has an integrated PS, much nicer IMHO) ... we use
a couple here for devices that only have BNC (no aui) which we need to
connect to utp, or in the past where e.g dec 3000/300x only comes with a
utp port, no aui/bnc..
