You might want to download the IPS repository and create a local IPS repository.
Preface - Copying and Creating Oracle Solaris 11 Package Repositories
Sections of interest should be how to create one from file (which you can obtain from Oracle site) and retrieving packages using HTTP interface.
After the repository is up, tell you clients (solaris x86/SPARC servers) which is it with pkg command
pkg set-publisher -G '*' -M '*' -g http://myrepo.domain:84 solaris
Port number is one you defined during repository svc creation ( retrieving packages using HTTP interface )
Then you can install packages which you need via pkg install command on clients
