Collapsing device management peripherals

Right now, I've got a pull-out KVM connected to an external KVM switch that connects to the management ports on our 
blade centers, etc.  I've also got a separate console server for our network devices with a modem for out of band.

I'd love to be able to collapse these three devices into one.  I've seen pull-out KVMs that have an integrated KVM 
switch, but I haven't seen anything that is also IP enabled to cover the console server component as well.

Has anyone seen such an animal, by chance?
