Both should work.

Wouldnt go se generic as all broadcom chipsets. Jericho chipset (7280R/R2/R3) is a fully fledged chip which enables a platform to be used as MPLS PE for all VPN types.
But with Trident chipset (7050SX/SX2/SX3), I would stick to Martini circuits, it will work. But It wont handle L3VPN PE functionality.
