If you use managed switches on both ends that properly support
EtherChannel and/or LACP, then your down time should be about 30 seconds
or less as the trunks setup. The main thing is that you will want the
links as balanced as you can get them.

I believe the original PowerRouter series does 5.9 gigabits and the latest

Just be careful if they want to do there own VLANs. If they do you
will need to dot1q tunnel them. Cisco has made it easy in that all you
have to do in addition to what you do now with a single VLAN is add
the switchport dot1q tunnel command to their interface on either side.

Check and see if you are running PVST, which runs spanning tree on
each VLAN.

Now you can set the serial port to RFC 2217 server mode and
you can use a remote application to communicate/control the serial device.
