Hi,
RTOS and embedded Linux are two different things; RTOS are used in where timely completion of task is required. RTOS is used in application like missiles, engine control, SDR, aero plane etc.
If you want to change your job from embedded Linux and move to rtos, then i believe the domain telecom and setup box is wrong choice. Because both are dominated by simple embedded os.
You have to move to aerospace, medical, military or automotive domain to work on RTOS.
To learn about rtos, i believe you can use freeRTOS.org. And non-expensive ARM board is beagelboard.
For rtos you can also rerfer following tutorials...
