Ah, unfortunately that's no longer exactly true.
 
Juniper doesn't vendor lock, all vendors work (sort of, I had trouble
with certain XFPs in EX4200 so buyer beware!) but certain functions
might not. As of now the only thing they have locked out if the XFP/SFP
are not Juniper are DOM/DDM. Other functions might follow, who knows.
This only applies to EX, in other Juniper products all things should
work.

XFP's are protocol agnostic, the same XFP works equally well for OC192
and 10GE (with perhaps modest different in optical budget, depending
on
type), and Juniper (to their credit) does not software lock their
optics
to specific vendors or product types. So yes.
