On the new ACX line, yes.

Not Trio, and different PLM :)

We don't mess around with any other MX products, so not sure (although
we are still yet to deploy the MPC10E's and the MX304).

MX304 (well, strictly LMIC16) has the same restriction, and a need for another entry in the magic port checker 
(https://apps.juniper.net/home/port-checker/index.html) for restrictions beyond "SUM(port-speeds) <= 1.6T".

They make sense once you've looked at the block diagram for the thing and followed the lines, but things like "4x10G 
breakout can only go in odd-numbered ports, and you have to leave the corresponding next-lowest even-numbered port 
empty" are not instantly obvious.

Thanks,
Tim.
