Linux-based Terminal Server for network gear.

I'm planning a DIY Terminal server for console access of our mix of network devices. I'm thinking to purchase a couple 32-port PCIe card from Pepperl+Fuchs (COMTROL) and use a tiny server with Ubuntu for remote access and experiment with provisioning automation. Would be this a better option than purchase a Cisco Terminal Services gateway C1100TG-1N32A? I can repurpose some old servers for that function. Unfortunately budget is always a concern so can't just ask to buy expensive gear unless absolutely necessary. Any suggestions?
