Greetings

Does anyone have a suggestion for a single piece of hardware that would
support 8 or less Ethernet interfaces and the two vpn tunnels ?

Single piece of hardware, no. If 2, then yes.

A PCengines Alix 2D3 with pfSense/m0n0wall and OpenVPN UDP tunnels to the datacenter combined with a Power over Ethernet switch would seem a likely combination. A HP Procurve 8 Port gigabit desktop switch with PoE comes to mind. Not too expensive, fanless, quiet, reliable does VLANS.

That way you can power the router and phones from the same (smallish) UPS. Say a 700VA APC.
