I've seen this with Finisar Copper-SFPs in 20x1G MICs which worked fine in 40x1G DPCs. Swapping them out with Methode Elec. SFPs did the trick. I remember that there were basically two different ways to signal link status from SFP to host, and the Finisars didn't do it the way the newer MX hardware expected it.
