    EXPIRED $178.98 GIGABYTE MC13-LE2 AM5 mATX server motherboard

    Those are the limitations of a desktop-ish platform.. AM5 Ryzen/baby-Epyc are not a I/O monster as the big (real?)

    EXPIRED $178.98 GIGABYTE MC13-LE2 AM5 mATX server motherboard

    The 4x slot is from the chipset leaving pciex4 from the cpu for connecting the dual SFP28 NIC. And because LE2 (without dual SFP28) and LE3 (with dual SFP28) shares the same pcb, on the LE2 variant you're "cheated" of pciex4 from the CPU as they are NOT connected to e.g. the 4x slot but left...

    1U Firewall Custom Chassis? (Front I/O, front PCI-E, rear PSU)

    Another option could be sc505 + picoPSU (possibly on a atx 90-degree adapter). That would also be plenty silent as a bonus.

    Juniper PTX image?

    with such a new BX-based router, I'm assuming had you had the hardware (and say.. a USD75K hole in your pocket..) you'll have had access to the software... so assuming you are just looking for the Junos-Evo software image to dissect it.. hence this might be a stand in: Free Virtual Junos OS...
