[j-nsp] MX80 vs MX40?

[Jerry Jones]

Same options are also available on MX104.
MIC slots and SFP+ ports are enabled by license.

Both platforms have same capabilities and are rated at 80G. The license does NOT affect this as some think.

RE on MX104 is slightly better than MX80.

Also the MX104 has redundant replaceable RE and the MX 80 does not.

Price can be less expensive for MX104

Go with MX104, just keep in mind this router can be oversubscribed if fully populated

My requirement is 10G fiber link terminate on router but in future we
can go with 20G link so should i consider MX80 or MX40 (cost wise
also)

If we buy MX80 so in base model it comes with 4x10G fiber ports right?
or do i need to buy them separately after buying MX80 chassis?

Additionally do i need to buy license separately to activate 10G port?
because in Cisco ASR1000 chassis you need to buy fiber module
extension, plue Activation license.. Very costly..


I have check some website they are also selling refurbished or used
which which in good deal should i think about that because buying to
MX80 for hardware redundancy will almost bankrupt us ;)

what do you suggest?
