If they are Akebono pads, then it's preferred that you used them with Akebono calipers as they have developed their own friction compounds and components, etc. etc. etc.

See for yourself...

Also depends on where you saw that requirement... For example some certain years Accord may have either Akebono or Nissin calipers. The pads aren't interchangeable, different shape.
