You could get a 5G Catalyst with an async NIM or SM.

But I think you're setting up yourself for unnecessary costs and
failures by designing your OOB to require static IP. You could design
it so that the OOB spokes dial-in to the central OOB hub, and the OOB
hub doesn't care what IP they come from, using certificates or PSK for
identity, instead of IP.
