Cisco Console connection cable

So I've been trying to find a console cable that has supports multiple different connections (like 10 different console connections) so I can use my 1 USB to Serial adapter. Does anyone know the kit that I could buy preferably on Amazon?

You all rock!!

i don't know any cables like that.

I've used powered usb hubs, but each of those ports needs a serial to usb adapter.
and unpowered hub splitters like this aren't going to work: Mini 4Port Hub High Speed USB2 0 Hub Splitter Cable Adapter for Laptop PC Black | eBay

Then there are these things: Digi Inside Out Edgeport 416 DB9 16 Port USB to Serial Converter | eBay
You are going to need a wall wart for power and a driver for you computer. But, digi has a good forum where you can find this information out. I have one of these at it works quite well. But, I bought mine for like $10 and it came with the wall wart.

there is also the digi cm32. There are several users of these on the forum that would help you get it set up. digi cm32 | eBay

And, of course you have your cisco access/terminal servers. 2511/2509 or a router with a nm-16as or nm-32as

or you could just buy console cables with a usb connector: http://www.ebay.com/itm/FTDI-USB-TO-RJ45-1-8m-6Ft-Console-Cable-for-Cisco-Juniper-Windows-7-8-/282054774038?hash=item41abc64d16:g:InEAAOSwpzdWqGmj
