If I recall correctly you're using a lot of 10G ports in the Init7 FTTO hubs right? Have you considered getting a box with lots of QSFP+/QSFP28 ports and doing some breakout with patchpanels? This can be done with QSFP+ MPO LR4 transceivers too since you probably need singlemode, the folks from FlexOptix can hook you up with those!
We are, by the way, moving to Juniper hardware in the DFZ routing layer ourselves. The MX204 is our new bread and butter.

These boxes don't have a long life ahead of them as a DFZ router, unless you only use X2-scalability cards in your chassis.. and with operators essentially being forced to upgrade to a completely different platform (SLX or $other_vendor), Brextreme's advantage of being the incumbent vendor in the network is pretty much completely negated. Finally, as a BDA, let me tell you that being stabbed in the back when it comes to my certification record has not benefited my opinion of the new owner(s) of the Brocade diaspora. Why they decided to not only pull the plug on the entire Brocade education program, but also delete the historical certification database from CertMetrics, is beyond me. It has become impossible to check the validity of years' worth of Brocade credentials.
