The 3rd-Gen (EA) Trio chip is actually rated at 480G, has been rate-limited to 240G in MPC7e and MPC8e linecards and is currently rate-limited to 400G in the MPC9e cards and the 10003 MPC. I have no idea why it is rate-limited but suspect thermal issues? See the book Juniper MX Series, 2nd

Regarding CWDM/DWDM, you could always add a QFX5110-48SH as a port extender box to the MX204 with Junos Fusion Provider Edge and sacrifice one or two 100G QSFP28 ports on the MX204. That way you'd have 2x100G and 48x 1/10G SFP+ ports with a bit of oversubscription in 2RU. Does anyone know if

Hello Aaron, that's not a Cisco-only "feature". You could also move from MX to new ASR boxes because Juniper told you that your old DPC cards do not work if you replace your RE-S-2000 with the newest RE (RE-S-X6-64G + SCBE2). ;) kind regards Rolf > The thing that caused me to evaluate replacing
