I have mx5’s (same hardware) running with non standard SFPs but I did have to buy Juniper coded ones to get reliable operation. For your requirement id look at FlexOptix (https://www.flexoptix.net) they do Juniper Coded optics with 24 hour delivery in Europe if needed and below the stupid price of actual juniper optics. If you order in the next 2 hours should be with you tomorrow.
