am looking for something in the 1-2U range and not a chassis.

juniper mx80 can get 12x10GB using 2x 4x10Gb mics mx platform does gre
in hardware.

I'd imagine there is no such beast right now. Only one that comes to
mind is the 6500/7600 but there is no fixed-configuration small box that
fits your port needs, you need a 7604 to get that amount of ports.
