Expression of data flow

When data flows as follows, can I say, as a title,

"Data flow between System A, System B, and System C"?



System A <-> System B <-> System C



Or do I have to say

"Data flow between System A and System B, and between System B and System C"?



I prefer shorter one, if it is not confusing.

Also I would like to know if the following writing is OK.

"Data flow between System A - System B - System C"



Thank you in advance.

A short version is best but yours does suggest that data flows between all three systems. If you put Data flow between System B and Systems A and C, then it is clear.
