Hardened?  Is this just "will survive in a not-well-cooled telco closet"
hardening,
or something more.... unusual?

I don't see specs yet, but I would expect it's the former, similar to the MX104 against the rest of the MX range.  
NEBS-compliances, and -40C to 65C operating temperature range (standard 0C to 46C).

For telco sites Cisco do theirs
NCS-55A2-MOD-HD-S: Temperature-hardened
NCS-55A2-MOD-HX-S: Temperature-hardened, conformal coated

Operating Temperature -40C to +70C

they don't say to what degree the conformal coating protects
it but that is usually used in dirty environments (military
was a common user, I don't know their target for this)
