"Use Cached Exchange Mode" check box is not available

No, Cached Exchange Mode is not available on a Terminal Server for
performance reasons. If all the logged on users were to enable Cached
Exchange Mode you'd be generating too much disk I/O. Cached Exchange mode is
used to reduce some of the stress from the server side and move it to the
client side. In case of the TS, you'd be only moving the stress from one
server to the other. In fact, you'd be increasing it.

Also, there is no need for using Cached Exchange Mode on a server. Since the
users already need to be connected to the Terminal Server, there is no
offline working scenario.

So why exactly do you need CEM on the TS?

One obvious reason would be "Junk Mail Filtering"
