what's the difference of XFP-10G-MM-SR,SFP-10G-SR and XENPAK-10GB-SR? Can they connect each other?

We are connecting a ASA 10G port with SFP-10G-SR to SCE 10G port with XFP-10G-MM-SR and C7609 10G port with XENPAK-10GB-SR, can they connect each other? or it is manadatory use the same SFP module for the connection?

The should be fine. According from the data sheet

SFP-10G-SR is 850nm MMF

As long as the wave lenght and fiber type matched, they should be able to communicate.
