Amphenol ICC FCC17B25AD4D0 D-Sub Adapter Connector - Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCC17B25AD4D0 is a D-Sub adapter connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This connector converts between D-Sub 25 Pin Male and D-Sub 25 Pin Female configurations in a free-hanging (in-line) mounting style. The part is classified as a Connector Saver adapter with integrated filtering capability.

The FCC17B25AD4D0 is currently listed as Obsolete. Locating equivalent substitute parts is necessary to ensure continued availability for system maintenance, repair, and new production builds where this connector type is specified.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the FCC17B25AD4D0 must maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility based on the following criteria:

Electrical Compatibility Requirements:

• D-Sub 25 Pin Female to D-Sub 25 Pin Male conversion capability
• 5 A current rating minimum
• Operating temperature range of -40°C to 85°C or broader
• Gold contact finish with equivalent thickness (15.0µin / 0.38µm)

Mechanical Compatibility Requirements:

• Free Hanging (In-Line) mounting configuration
• 2-row pin arrangement
• Steel shell with tin plating
• Black housing color
• Integrated filter feature
• UL94 V-0 flammability rating

Compliance Considerations:

• RoHS compliance status may differ between main part and substitutes
• Both parts share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.8000) classifications

Substitutes must match all electrical and mechanical parameters listed above. Deviations in any parameter disqualify a part from direct substitution.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitute: FCE17B25AD4D0

The FCE17B25AD4D0 is the direct functional equivalent to the FCC17B25AD4D0. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, mechanical configurations, and performance characteristics across all critical parameters.

Key Differentiation:

The FCE17B25AD4D0 differs from the main part in two aspects:

1. Product Status: The FCE17B25AD4D0 is Active, whereas the FCC17B25AD4D0 is Obsolete. This status difference ensures long-term availability and continued manufacturing support for the substitute part.

2. RoHS Compliance: The FCE17B25AD4D0 is RoHS Compliant, while the FCC17B25AD4D0 is RoHS Non-Compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements mandating RoHS compliance, the FCE17B25AD4D0 is the appropriate selection.

Selection Criteria:

• For applications with no RoHS compliance requirement and where existing FCC17B25AD4D0 inventory is available, either part is functionally interchangeable.
• For new designs, production builds, or applications requiring RoHS compliance, the FCE17B25AD4D0 is the recommended selection due to its Active status and compliance certification.
• Both parts are manufactured by Amphenol ICC and maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring direct pin-for-pin and form-factor compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17B25AD4D0 directly replace the FCC17B25AD4D0 in existing applications?

A: Yes. The FCE17B25AD4D0 is electrically and mechanically identical to the FCC17B25AD4D0. Both connectors feature the same 25-pin D-Sub configuration, 5 A current rating, operating temperature range, gold contact finish, and filtering capability. Direct substitution is supported without circuit or mechanical redesign.

Q: What is the significance of the Obsolete status for the FCC17B25AD4D0?

A: Obsolete status indicates that the FCC17B25AD4D0 is no longer in active production. While existing inventory may be available, future procurement cannot be guaranteed. The FCE17B25AD4D0, with Active status, ensures continued manufacturing availability for long-term production requirements.

Q: Does RoHS compliance affect the electrical performance of the FCE17B25AD4D0?

A: No. RoHS compliance is a material composition specification that restricts hazardous substances. It does not alter electrical performance, current rating, contact resistance, or operating temperature range. The FCE17B25AD4D0 maintains identical electrical specifications to the FCC17B25AD4D0.

Q: Are there any mechanical differences between the FCC17B25AD4D0 and FCE17B25AD4D0?

A: No. Both parts share identical mechanical specifications: free-hanging (in-line) mounting, 2-row pin arrangement, steel shell with tin plating, black housing, and integrated filtering. Form factor and installation method are identical.

Q: What does the series designation (FCC17 vs. FCE17) indicate?

A: The series designation identifies the product line within Amphenol ICC's connector portfolio. FCC17 and FCE17 are distinct series, but the specific models FCC17B25AD4D0 and FCE17B25AD4D0 are functionally equivalent adapters. The series difference reflects manufacturing evolution and compliance updates rather than functional divergence.

Q: Can these adapters be used in high-temperature applications?

A: Both the FCC17B25AD4D0 and FCE17B25AD4D0 are rated for operating temperatures from -40°C to 85°C. Applications requiring operation outside this range require alternative connector specifications.

Q: Is the 5 A current rating sufficient for my application?

A: The 5 A rating applies to the adapter connector itself. Verify that your application's current requirements do not exceed this specification. If higher current capacity is required, alternative D-Sub connector models with higher current ratings must be selected.
