+1 for Opengear.  They've been very reliable, although the adapter
cables are a little annoying they're very versatile and I guess I'd
rather have them than not.

Opengear will probably do 90% of that (not sure about AD/radius) They
use
standard RJ-45 / Cat-5 with adaptor cables to do Cisco rollover / APC
rj-11 / DB9 etc.

It's a linux box under the hood and their CTO is in Brisbane so if you
need a particular feature. There is a good chance that lunch and a few
beers might get it for you :P
