Answer Wiki:
10G-SR (multimode) should be able to transparently connect to another 10G-SR transceiver with no issues - similar to the way GBIC and SFP are fully compatible; as long as you match optics type with the appropriate fiber cable. Make sure your cable is Multimode, and presumably orange (or aqua?) which are standard for 50 micron multimode.

Just a point of interest, the colour of the fibre cable does not represent anything, that is a myth. The colour is whatever the manufacturer chose, and you chose when you bought it. They can be blue, yellow, grey, green or whatever.
