Why would you need an ethernet port on a terminal emulator? Or do you
mean you want a terminal server (in which case why would it need
video?).
Old terminal emulators are frequently given away. Terminal servers
are a bit more desirable, but I suspect you could probably get an 8
porter for less than $100 on eBay.
