We have one of these nice new and fancy Cisco ASR920-24SZ, just realized it=
 doesn't have an RJ45 Console port only USB. When we deploy devices at our =
pop we wire the console port to a terminal\console server, well that doesn'=
t work for a usb console device.

So what is everyone doing for out of band management via the console when i=
t's a usb only device?
Is there something I am missing?
Is there a console server for USB?
Does cisco make an USB to RJ45 Jack adapter?
