We've had some serious issues with Juniper AOC cables between QFX and MX. It 
worked with the factory-installed version 15.1X, but then after upgrading QFX 
to >=17 train caused the AOC work only between two QFX switches, but not 
between QFX and MX, regardless of FEC etc. configuration. Then finally in some 
SR release AOC again started to work.

This was AOC specific issue and in fact we have more or less abandoned AOC 
cables, but nevertheless 100G seems to be much more difficult to interop than 
previous speed generations.
