Most of the time the best way to find out is to look at the product specs on the Cisco site:

Cisco XFP Modules for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Packet-Over-Sonet Applications [Cisco Transceiver Modules] - Cisco Systems

Connectors and Cabling
Connectors: Dual LC/PC connector
Only connections with patch cords with PC or UPC connectors are supported. Patch cords with APC connectors are not supported. All cables and cable assemblies used must be compliant with the standards specified in the standards section.

And

Cisco 10GBASE X2 Modules [Cisco Transceiver Modules] - Cisco Systems

Cisco X2-10GB-SR
The Cisco 10GBASE-SR Module supports a link length of 26m on standard FDDI grade MMF. Using 2000 MHz*km MMF (OM3), up to 300m link lengths are possible.

Thanks so basically "LC to LC connectors" are the same as "Dual SC/PC connectors"?
