Cisco Terminal Server 

I needed a very inexpensive terminal server to provide console access to my security lab. I purchased an 8 Port USB To RS232 Adapter from StarTech.

I found this on Amazon for $144.  I attached this to the Dell Latitude D600, which is running XP.  This solution works great.  I RDP into the laptop and have CON access to 8 devices.
