Steven, >From what I have seen so far, the most portable solution are the KVMs from Startech.
They got it all, VNC, JAVA client which works with any Java Capable OS, Radius for Auth and so on. Unfortunately they do not make a CAT5 KVM :( but as others have adivised you could buy a KVM to IP bridge from them and use it with your existing KVM solution. Their p/n for it is SV1110IPEXT If you want to go really cheap: Look out on Ebay.com, this extender pops up there regularly and goes for around 200$, which, considering current dollars condition is a steal. Another nice solution is IMHO latest Raritan Dominion KVMs, those are pretty reliable and nice but very pricey.
