We're in the process of implementing time clocks from Kronos.  They run as
5250 terminals over a twinax connection; I believe an Ethernet connection
is an option.  We're not fully implemented; we had some problems that
needed ROM chips updated.  Plus, we're making the poor things use Pass Thru
to our payroll As/400, so we've had a few more issues to deal with.
