Here is a reference to using TELNET with Unicode:

http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Unicode-HOWTO.html

You need to set the "outbinary" option. e.g. 

telnet -L <host>

You can also set this in the .telnetrc startup file.  See the man page
for details.

SSH is 8-bit clean and will pass Unicode characters correctly.
