Looking for router recommendations with SFP ports (self.selfhost)

hey all, i'm looking to replace my isp's router (i know that i can, it's basically just DHCP on a specific VLAN) with my own one and i'm looking for recommendations.

here's what i would need out of it:

best price-to-performance ratio. the larger the NAT table it can keep in RAM the better (i run some things akin to ipv4 scanning)
OpenWRT support
at least one sfp port for internet access, supporting 5Gb/s.
at least one 1 Gb/s ethernet port
ideally 2-3 100Mb/s ethernet ports
wifi support: yes (don't need anything fancy, even 5GHz is optionnal but preffered)
LTE modem: dont care but nice to have

i had a look around the OpenWRT supported devices table but since it doesn't really list ports and i need sfp, it takes a long time to go through and read german router pages.

can anyone recommend a router that meets these at least partially?

Take a look at the Turris Omnia. 6 1Gb/s ethernet ports (5 for LAN, 1 for WAN), a SFP port (though only 2.5Gb/s), 802.11ax with 4 antennas, 2GB RAM which should be plenty. There's a SIM slot but I haven't tried it yet and according to documentation you might need a separate modem. It comes with their OpenWrt variant out of the box and is pretty much the best (at least by my criteria) all in one WiFi router I've found that runs OpenWrt. I was going to buy the QNAP QHORA-301W before I found this one (you might want to take a look at that as well).
