Your requirements are met by every single Cisco router in the market starting with the 2800 (which is the cheapest rack mountable model).

One thing to keep in mind, the routing protocol offering relies on the feature set you decide to purchase with the router. It seems you want the kitchen sink, so you must order Enterprise SSH when ordering the IOS of choice.

isn't one of the 1800 series (mod) rack mountable as well (or is it one of the narrower mounts)
