as per standard that should work - this can only be confirmed once connected and tested.

if you have both the sides optic available, you need to test.  (my past experience it works with other vendor with 10G-SR)

problem is I need to confirm first in order to buy the cisco sfp as i dont have it.  is there some kind of method to tell if two sfp can work with each other ? for example the wave length matching?

as i mentioned It works as expected, if you have more concern you can buy both side cisco 10G-SR SFP Optic to meet the requirement.

  - In essence the question 'doesn't matter' , the only thing  that counts is that the fiber-mode must be the same at both ends (and or both ends can then use their own-branded sfp's accordingly).

If i want to buy the cisco SFP-10G-SR , is this the part model that i ask the seller to purchase "SFP-10G-SR" or there is some other part model name?

 

 - For your cisco devices enter the switch-model (e.g.) here : https://tmgmatrix.cisco.com/ , you will then find the full model names of the compatible sfp's (too).
