No; but the devices in question have 10Mb/s NIC chips.  That's all that's needed for a single-port RS-232 terminal server, or a remote weather station.  Just have to filter multicast and rate limit broadcasts.  The backbone is gigabit, and the switches all have either 10/100/1000 or 10/100 ports.

No, that event happened two weeks ago, thanks to a misbehaving megapixel IP camera.
