Okay, so it would be for networks behind a NAT.

Disregard my “AFAIK” answer. This is the real answer per
http://www.nbalonso.com/os-x-server-caching/
“The cache server registers online with Apple and provides it’s
public IP, your servers local IP, internal DNS name? (not sure of
the dns)”

I couldn't see how other people are supposed to know you have one
of these caches running.

OSX Server is a $19.99 add-on to OSX Yosemite. You can virtualize
OSX in ESXi (of course it won’t be supported by Apple unless it’s
Apple hardware.)

Unless the caching server is free. Under what conditions does
Apple put one of these in?

For those that are unaware of it you should take a look
at Apple's Caching Server 2. It is pretty cool, it
provides Apple software updates, iTunes content and
basically anything Apple in a local cache that is
transparent to the client. Apple looks at the source IP
of the device asking for content and tells it to hit the
local IP of your caching server. My day job is a Network
Administrator at a technical college. This has prevented
the "APPLE DAYS OF DOOM" when they release updates in
regards to our open (public) wireless network.

Hello,
it depends on what you want/can achieve and how much
bandwidth you have
(and the experince you want to give to the users)
In few words: those boxes do not invent bandwidth
they (all) try to
improve how you manage it. So those boxes are
managing the bandwidth
with their policies that could or could not fit your
policies.
Some simple tricks will help you to move the traffic
locally (e.g.
Implementing local web-caching, local DNS, etc) but
for sure you have to
work on the infrastructure to optimize the traffic.
The nice thing, in
that case, is that you will be more aware of what
your users are doing
and how to make them happy; the bad part of the story
is that you have
to spend time (or consultants) to get it. For the
hardware, many are
using Mikrotik CCR or even slower/cheaper Mikrotik
models.
For sure investing more in infrastructure will help a
lot :)
Just my 2 cents
