Take a look at Adtran's OPTI-3 or more scalable OPTI-6100 series products.
I have no idea why Adtran has mile-long URLs, so here goes:

Some used gear out there but not a lot. The right wholesaler can give
you a pretty good discount on the new stuff. We've had excellent
results with Adtran equipment.
Note that this gear as well as TTBOMK the Fujitsu is native 48VDC power,
so figure in a power supply if you're in an AC environment. Adtran
sells compatible power supplies if needed.
