Optics designed for use with OLTs assume that the OLT will handle OMCI which is why they won't work with Mikrotik/whatever.
Something like http://www.nucom.hk/index.php/products/gpon/item/nu-gp60000-gpon-sfp-ont should work. It presents as a standard ethernet interface to the host and is managed by the OLT. You want to look for something that supports OMCI onboard instead of assuming the device it's plugged into handles OMCI. If you've seen a DOCSIS HWIC in a Cisco router it's the same concept. The card extends the reach of the service provider environment into a otherwise untrusted end-user device.
