I seem to recall there are at least two companies that specialize in this -
one is called MasterLink (or something like that), I can't seem to recall
the name of the other one.  Last I heard, one package cost ~$495, and the
other was about $95.   It pays to shop around.  If you can get hold of
Datapro publications, they're both listed in the volume that discusses
micro to mainframe communication.
 
Both the above-mentioned packages emulate a somewhat extended version
of the Burroughs poll-select terminal - you can have several sessions
going at once, and switch between them at will, or allocate windows to
each.
 
Hope this helps.
