I've used Cisco 2500 routers for this type of service, using the AUX
port and a roll-over cable to connect to the target device. I'm talking
2501s mostly, not the 2511 or 2508, unless you need to control more than
one device at a specific location.
Ethernet, AUX port, SSH, firewall. Updates are sketchy, but these are
mature devices.
