Substitute Categories:
Category 1: Direct Series Equivalents (Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series) The FCE17B25PC2EB and related FCE17B25 variants represent active-status equivalents from Amphenol ICC. These parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications to the FCC17B25PC2EB while offering RoHS compliance and improved availability. The FCE17 series shares the same connector geometry, pin configuration, and performance characteristics.
Category 2: Parametric Equivalents (Amphenol ICC FCE17 Variants) Parts FCE17B25PC20B, FCE17B25PC21B, FCE17B25PC24B, FCE17B25PC25B, FCE17B25PC28B, FCE17B25PC29B, and FCE17B25PC2DB are parametric equivalents within the FCE17B25 base product family. These variants differ only in dielectric material composition (Thermoplastic, Glass Filled) and packaging specifications, maintaining full electrical and mechanical compatibility.
Category 3: Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives (HARTING) Parts 09653226800 and 09653227800 from HARTING provide functional equivalence as 25-position D-Sub plug connectors with right-angle solder termination.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17B25PC2EB
The FCE17B25PC2EB is the direct active equivalent of the obsolete FCC17B25PC2EB. This part maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering RoHS compliance status. The FCE17B25PC2EB is the preferred replacement for new designs and ongoing production requiring direct form-fit-function compatibility.
Secondary Recommendations: Amphenol ICC FCE17B25 Variants
The FCE17B25PC20B, FCE17B25PC21B, FCE17B25PC24B, FCE17B25PC25B, FCE17B25PC28B, FCE17B25PC29B, and FCE17B25PC2DB variants are parametric equivalents within the same base product family. These parts are suitable for applications where dielectric material composition variations (glass-filled thermoplastic) are acceptable. All variants maintain the same connector geometry, pin count, and electrical performance characteristics. Selection among these variants depends on specific application requirements and packaging preferences.
Alternative Consideration: HARTING 09653226800 and 09653227800
The HARTING parts 09653226800 and 09653227800 provide functional equivalence as 25-position D-Sub plug connectors with right-angle solder termination. These alternatives offer extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) and higher current rating (6.5A). However, these parts differ in backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), contact material composition (Copper Alloy versus Phosphor Bronze), and contact finish specifications. Application of HARTING alternatives requires verification of mechanical fit within existing PCB layouts and confirmation that the extended thermal range and increased current capacity do not introduce unintended design changes.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the FCE17B25PC2EB directly replace the FCC17B25PC2EB in existing designs?
A: Yes. The FCE17B25PC2EB is a direct equivalent offering identical connector geometry, pin configuration, electrical ratings, and mechanical mounting characteristics. The primary difference is product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance. No design modifications are required for substitution.
Q: What is the difference between FCE17B25PC2EB and the other FCE17B25 variants?
A: All FCE17B25 variants share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. Differences exist in dielectric material composition (standard thermoplastic versus glass-filled thermoplastic) and packaging format. These variants are interchangeable from an electrical and mechanical standpoint.
Q: Are the HARTING parts 09653226800 and 09653227800 direct replacements?
A: The HARTING parts are functionally equivalent but not direct replacements. While they maintain the same connector style, position count, and mounting type, they differ in backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), contact material, and operating temperature range. Mechanical fit verification within existing PCB layouts is required before substitution.
Q: What does backset spacing mean, and why does it matter?
A: Backset spacing is the distance from the rear of the connector shell to the contact termination points. The FCC17B25PC2EB and Amphenol ICC FCE17 series use 0.590" (14.99mm) backset spacing, while HARTING parts use 0.409" (10.40mm). Different backset spacing affects PCB layout compatibility and connector insertion depth. Substitution with different backset spacing requires PCB redesign.
Q: Is RoHS compliance a critical factor for substitution?
A: RoHS compliance status depends on application requirements and regulatory jurisdiction. The FCC17B25PC2EB is RoHS non-compliant, while all Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants and HARTING alternatives are RoHS compliant. For applications subject to RoHS regulations, compliant alternatives are required.
Q: Can I use a HARTING connector if my application requires the 200V voltage rating?
A: The HARTING parts do not specify a voltage rating in the provided data. The FCC17B25PC2EB specifies 200V. Before substituting with HARTING alternatives, voltage rating specifications must be obtained from the manufacturer to ensure compatibility with application requirements.
Q: What is the significance of contact finish thickness (15.0µin)?
A: Contact finish thickness of 15.0µin (0.38µm) specifies the gold plating depth on the connector contacts. This thickness ensures adequate contact durability and electrical performance over the connector's operational life. All Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants maintain this specification. HARTING parts do not specify contact finish thickness in the provided data.
Q: Are there packaging differences between the substitute parts?
A: Yes. The FCC17B25PC2EB packaging is not specified. The FCE17B25PC2EB is packaged in boxes, while other FCE17B25 variants do not specify packaging format. HARTING parts are supplied in bulk packaging. Packaging format may affect procurement, handling, and inventory management but does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.
Q: What is the current rating difference between the FCC17B25PC2EB and HARTING alternatives?
A: The FCC17B25PC2EB and all Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants are rated for 5A continuous current. HARTING parts 09653226800 and 09653227800 are rated for 6.5A. The higher HARTING rating provides additional current capacity but does not affect compatibility with applications designed for 5A operation.
Q: Can I mix connector types from different manufacturers in the same assembly?
A: While mechanically and electrically equivalent connectors can be used in different circuit branches, mixing manufacturers within a single connector pair (plug and receptacle) is not recommended without explicit verification of mating compatibility. Connector mating surfaces, contact geometry, and insertion force specifications should be confirmed with manufacturers before mixing brands.
