A company called Lantronix makes a similar product called the UDS-10. I have one and it's quite nice. It has a web interface and is pretty small. It's already available and costs about $230.

Have a look at Rocket Port, we've got a couple at work (the 12 port ones), I don't know how much they cost but they're certainly a reliable solution. I believe that drivers exist for linux.

I know people have talked about USB solutions but if i remember correctly, the empeg USB is not a master port.
