There's a selection of commercial software available including Serial to Ethernet from Eltima (www.eltima.com) and Serial/IP™ COM Port

This serial port redirector software is loaded in your desktop PC, and it allows you to use a serial device that's connected to the remote
console server as if it were connected to your local serial port.
