[j-nsp] 40Gig Ether for MX480

[Luis Balbinot]

Same. Juniper is running WAY too late on an ACX5048 replacement with
100G interfaces. We had great expectations for the ACX5448 until we
saw the price list being 3-4x higher than the 5048.

Regarding the original question, I'd also check the MPC5 if your
budget is restricted and you have slots to spare. You can get 12x10G
and 3x40G if you only need to serve that one customer over 40G.
Juniper's pricing for the MPC7-MRATE is also ridiculous at 2x the
price of an MX204.
