all the boxes I found are not cheep, but worse, only provide binaries
for windows, or linux.

I'm not entirely sure about your setup - you write usb based controllers - and then mostly serial...

I know it is not strictly speaking usb over ip - but did you look at RFC 2217 ?

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2217

There are several projects supporting RFC 2217:

http://ser2net.sourceforge.net/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sercd/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cyclades-serial/

"ser2net" and "sredird" are in FreeBSD ports:
