[comp.dcom.modems] Looking for Channel Bank Modems

I am looking for 1200/2400 baud async modems that can be plugged
directly into a D4 channel bank (that is the demultiplexer for
T1 service).  Why take the channel to 2-wire analog then to
what is (usually) a digital signal processor, when I ought to be
able to get better performance (and fewer parts) by accepting
the call data in digital form in the first place.

Does such a beast exist?  Failing that, are there any 4-wire modems.

I have a situation with noisy lines, and have the opportunity to take
the local lines in T1 format rather than as 24 analog circuits.  The
remote users are dialing in with Hayes type modems.
