I've used the Carrier Access Access Bank I and the Carrier Access Adit600.  I 
*far* prefer the Adit600, even though it has an oddball form factor.  (It's 
about 2U tall but only about 6 or 7 inches wide instead of 19).  It can 
handle two T1s and is modular so you can have any combination of FXS and FXO 
ports (in groups of 8).

The Access Bank I and II (II is the 2-T1 version of the ABI) work fine as FXS 
channel banks, but their FXO modules do *not* detect far-end disconnect which 
makes them practically useless for terminating FXO.

I believe others have used the Adtran TA750 or something along those lines, 
but I'll let them comment, as I've never seen one.
