I am sure there are more.
3com had a NIC out a couple years ago that had onboard hardware encryption. I believe they were calling it the Typhoon. I only saw one at a show in NY, but never saw one sitting on a shelf for sale anywhere, but it was probably such a specialized thing they wouldn't retail it.
