The EX platform is very particular with regards to the coding of the SFPs.
Be sure you use Juniper coding.

What do see if you run "show chassis hardware" on the ex?
Also try show interface diagnostics optics ge-0/1/x to ensure you're
receiving signal.

Have you tried different combinations of negotiate on off between both
switches?

Juniper gear generally accepts a lot more third party optics than you find
on Cisco.
