For telco sites Cisco do theirs
NCS-55A2-MOD-HD-S: Temperature-hardened
NCS-55A2-MOD-HX-S: Temperature-hardened, conformal coated

Operating Temperature -40C to +70C

they don't say to what degree the conformal coating protects
it but that is usually used in dirty environments (military
was a common user, I don't know their target for this)
