I don't know much about Mikrotik, but there are OC-3 interfaces you can
put in a regular pc:
http://www.tmcnet.com/voip/0808/telesoft-technologies-stm-1-oc-3-pci-express-card.htm
http://oem.imagestream.com/PCI_Card_Overview.html (the 1104 does POS/OC3
if I read it correctly).
There seems to be others, last I checked though these cards were in the
USD4000-5000 range or so, so it was cheaper to buy a used 7200/NPE-300 and
PA-POS/PA-GE.
If someone knows and has good experience of a POS card (pci or pci-e) that
works well in Linux (2.6.32 preferrably) I'm very interested.
