Delivering Ethernet from a 15454 over an OC-3 to a Customer site

Can anyone recommend a CPE device to use that will accept an OC-3 optical connection and deliver Ethernet to a Customer site? I am looking for a small device.

Thanks for the response. The CISCO 3600 does not have a non ATM OC-3 interface to connect to a CISCO 15454. I would like to be able to deliver Ethernet from a Ethernet port on the ONS 15454 to an Ethernet port at a remote site.

Unfortunately, to deliver Ethernet from a 15454 via SONET (OC-3) in your case, you would have to "bookend" the OC-3 circuit with 15454's. The encapsulation of Ethernet over SONET via the 15454 is not compatible with anything other than 15454. When the 4-port OC-3 card for the 15327 (baby-brother to the 15454) ships, then you will be able to put the 15454 on one end and the 15327 at the remote site, connect them via OC-3, and transport Ethernet between the two points.
