Hi Phil / Mark,
Based on your requirement for 4 x 10G and 8 x 1G in a box, M120 or
M320 are too expensive for purchasing it and the maintenance cost.
For the M120, you'll need to buy at least 3 FEBs (without any
redundancy), each FEB supports up to 20G nonetheless per unit cost of
the 10GE PIC w/ FPC or the cFPC for 10G are expensive. For more
information, you can check the hardware guide on Juniper's site or
with your local vendor or Juniper's SE / AM.
If you're going for pure ethernet I'd suggest that you go for the MX
w/ the GE and 10G DPCE for Juniper solution or the Cisco 7600 w/ the
SIP-600+SPA or ES-20 LCs or others. (As an example). If you do have
the intention to run non-ethernet interfaces, the MX-FPC2/FPC3 w/ the
PICs will be cost factor which you may want to take into consideration
against other boxes or vendor(s)' solutions.
Cheers, thanks.

We're in the same 10G boat as Ken and Mark so I'm really
appreciating all
the contributions to this thread! Actually have a meeting next week
with
our Juniper account to discuss 10G platforms so this topic is very
timely.
We have 3 m10i's in our extranet with a couple of OC12 PICs, AS-
PICs. IPv4/
someday IPv6, Multicast.
Thanks,
Phil

While I love Junipers I would consider Cisco so if anyone might
suggest suitable Cisco models I'd also appreciate that.
Kind regards,

i'm have approximately the same requirements as Mark and considering
the
MX480 vs M120 choice, so i very much appreciate the comments folks
have made
about the MX series. we have an M120 and are happy with it, but
there is a
substantial price difference between the MX480 and M120, and we have
no need
for non-ethernet interfaces.
Mark did not mention multicast explicitly; we need this router to do
IPv4/IPv6 multicast. has anyone got any experience with multicast on
the MX
series?
thanks,
ken
p.s.: it's worth noting that adding "tunnel PIC capability" to an
MX, in
order to have it act as an RP, uses a full slot in the chassis.
