For typical console access/OOB use cases only or a lot more data? If the former, I can't see any reason to mess with anything more than a telemetry-rate plan SIM card in a 3g/4g console server. Chances are, if you can get cell phone coverage to your cage, it will work fine. They're also very cheap, lower latency, and nothing more than velcro is needed to install them.
