Can't comment on Cyclades, but I have used a few Lantronix console 
servers.  And I even have one for sale like this one:

http://www.kvm-switches-online.com/500-000-3200.html

It has 32 serial ports, plus 8 local terminal ports, plus 2 LAN ports. 
Nice thing about this product is that it supports users and you can 
limit the ports users can access. It is upgradable to SSH, but only 
supports telnet/http as it is now.

Yours for only $250.
