FCC17A15SC210 D-Sub Receptacle Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCC17A15SC210 is a 15-position D-Sub receptacle connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This through-hole, right-angle solder-terminated connector features female sockets with a 2-row (DA, A) shell layout and is designed for signal applications in industrial and commercial equipment.

The FCC17A15SC210 carries an obsolete product status. Equivalent and substitute parts are necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production and field service requirements. Active alternatives from Amphenol ICC and other manufacturers provide functional compatibility while offering improved availability and compliance certifications.

Number of rows (2)
Shell size and layout (2 / DA, A)
Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
Backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm)

Electrical Compatibility:

Current rating (5A minimum)
Voltage rating (200V minimum)
Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C minimum)

Termination & Construction:

Termination method (Solder)

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: FCE17A15SC210

The FCE17A15SC210 is the direct equivalent from Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This part maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications to the FCC17A15SC210 while offering active product status and RoHS compliance. The FCE17 series represents the current generation replacement for the obsolete FCC17 series. This part is suitable for new designs and ongoing production support.

Alternative Amphenol ICC Options: FCE17A15SC200, FCE17A15SC240, FCE17A15SC250, FCE17A15SC280, FCE17A15SC290, FCE17A15SC2D0, FCE17A15SC2E0

These variants within the FCE17A15 base product family provide identical mechanical and electrical performance with variations in shell finish specifications. All maintain the same 0.590" (14.99mm) backset spacing, 15-position 2-row configuration, and solder termination. All are active products with RoHS compliance. Selection among these variants depends on specific shell finish and dielectric material requirements for the application.

Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives: 09662127600, 09662526616 (HARTING)

The HARTING 09662127600 and 09662526616 connectors provide functional equivalence with the following considerations:

Backset spacing differs at 0.409" (10.40mm) versus the FCC17A15SC210 specification of 0.590" (14.99mm). This difference affects PCB layout compatibility and must be evaluated for specific applications.
Current rating is higher at 6.5A versus 5A, providing additional electrical margin.
Operating temperature range extends to -55°C ~ 125°C, exceeding the FCC17A15SC210 range of -40°C ~ 85°C.
Contact material is copper alloy rather than phosphor bronze.
ROHS3 compliance is provided.

These parts are suitable for applications where the reduced backset spacing is compatible with PCB design and where the extended temperature range provides operational benefit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17A15SC210 be used as a direct replacement for the FCC17A15SC210?

A: Yes. The FCE17A15SC210 maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications including connector type, position count, shell size, mounting type, backset spacing, current rating, and operating temperature range. The primary differences are active product status and RoHS compliance certification.

Q: What is the significance of the different FCE17A15 variants (SC200, SC240, SC250, SC280, SC290, SC2D0, SC2E0)?

A: These variants represent different shell finish and dielectric material specifications within the same mechanical and electrical family. All maintain the 0.590" (14.99mm) backset spacing and identical position configuration. Selection depends on specific application requirements for shell finish and dielectric properties. Consult application documentation for finish and material specifications.

Q: Why do the HARTING parts (09662127600, 09662526616) have different backset spacing?

A: The HARTING connectors use a 0.409" (10.40mm) backset spacing compared to the 0.590" (14.99mm) specification of the FCC17A15SC210. This difference reflects different design standards between manufacturers. Backset spacing affects the distance from the connector mounting surface to the contact plane and directly impacts PCB layout. These parts are suitable only for applications where the reduced spacing is compatible with existing PCB designs.

Q: Are the HARTING alternatives suitable for all applications using the FCC17A15SC210?

A: The HARTING parts provide functional equivalence in terms of connector type, position count, and shell size. However, the reduced backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590") requires PCB layout verification. The extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) and higher current rating (6.5A) provide additional performance margin. These parts are suitable for applications where backset spacing compatibility is confirmed.

Q: What compliance certifications are relevant for substitute part selection?

A: The FCC17A15SC210 is RoHS non-compliant. All Amphenol ICC FCE17 series alternatives provide RoHS compliance. The HARTING alternatives provide ROHS3 compliance. For applications subject to RoHS regulations, the Amphenol ICC FCE17 series or HARTING alternatives are required. For legacy applications without RoHS requirements, the original FCC17A15SC210 remains available in limited inventory.

Q: How do the dielectric materials differ between substitute options?

A: The FCC17A15SC210 uses standard thermoplastic dielectric material. Most FCE17A15 variants use thermoplastic with glass filling, which provides improved mechanical and thermal properties. The HARTING alternatives use polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) with polyester and glass filling. These material differences do not affect electrical compatibility but may influence mechanical performance and thermal stability in specific applications.

Q: What is the contact finish specification for the HARTING alternatives?

A: The HARTING 09662127600 and 09662526616 connectors do not specify contact finish in the provided data. The FCC17A15SC210 and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 alternatives specify gold contact finish at 15.0µin (0.38µm) thickness. Contact finish affects signal integrity and corrosion resistance. For applications requiring specified contact finish, the Amphenol ICC alternatives are recommended.

Q: Are there inventory considerations for substitute part selection?

A: The FCC17A15SC210 has 1103 pieces in stock as a new original part. The FCE17A15SC210 has 904 pieces available. Other FCE17A15 variants range from 687 to 1189 pieces in inventory. HARTING alternatives have 875 and 1095 pieces available. For immediate availability, all listed alternatives have adequate inventory. For long-term supply assurance, active product status (all FCE17 and HARTING parts) is preferable to obsolete status (FCC17A15SC210).
