I believe that DT is the only carrier that uses -60Vdc CO's, but I think that it is only present in their older CO's.
It's not that hard to meet the requirements though - just maintain 1mm (40th) creepage & clearance between TNV-2 and SELV, GND, etc (up to your DC/DC's/opto-isolators/bridging caps) and make sure any bridging capacitors are physically large enough to have 1mm between the pads (Y rating is not required but anything smaller than a 1206 SMT cap is too small to maintain spacings). Voltage rating on the caps is important too, I guess - pick according to proper NEBS reliability derating. -And you may have to ensure that your DC/DC's are rated properly.
