OPII ethernet keypad? Affordable not omni touch 7

I need to add a keypad to my system in the garage and it won't be easy to get a new wire from the panel to the new keypad location. I have an ethernet connection which is on the same network as the OPII panel so was thinking this would be a possible solution. Does anyone know if there are any ethernet keypads that could interface with the OPII?

Alternatively I could go wireless but this would be a last resort as the distance to the garage leads to unreliable connections.

Thanks in advance for all input.

When I posted my original question I was thinking of a traditional wall keypad. I have a few old iPads laying around that will work connecting through my wifi and using haiku iOS app. Since this is in the garage I would still prefer a wall keypad but a search hasn't identified any. If anyone is aware of such a device please share.
 
My only other thought would be another system that can interface with the HAI getting into something like an RTI keypad - but I doubt that'd be any more cost effective.  The iPad would be fine in a garage since there's no moving parts or fans.
