FCC17B25SC400 D-Sub Receptacle Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCC17B25SC400 is a 25-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 configuration in shell size 3 (DB, B). The connector incorporates board lock and filter features with gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts rated for 5A at 200V operation across the temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.

The FCC17B25SC400 carries an obsolete product status. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure component availability, and support ongoing production and field service requirements for legacy systems utilizing this connector.

Substitution Groups:

Group 1: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Active Status, RoHS Compliant) Parts FCE17B25SC400, FCE17B25SC410, FCE17B25SC440, FCE17B25SC450, FCE17B25SC480, FCE17B25SC490, FCE17B25SC4D0, and FCE17B25SC4E0 represent the active production equivalent to the obsolete FCC17B25SC400. These parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications with the exception of RoHS compliance status (RoHS Compliant versus RoHS non-compliant). The FCE17 series shares the same base product number platform (FCE17B25) and provides direct functional replacement with improved regulatory compliance.

Group 2: HARTING D-Sub Receptacles (Active Status, ROHS3 Compliant) Parts 09663126600 and 09663126601 from HARTING provide alternative D-Sub receptacle solutions with 25 positions, 2 rows, shell size 3 (DB, B), through-hole right-angle mounting, and solder termination. These connectors operate across -55°C to 125°C, exceeding the FCC17B25SC400 temperature range. Current rating is 6.5A, exceeding the 5A requirement. Backset spacing differs at 0.409" (10.40mm) versus 0.590" (14.99mm) on the Amphenol part, and flange features vary (unthreaded or M3 versus 4-40 threaded). Contact form is stamped rather than machined, and contact material is copper alloy rather than phosphor bronze.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series

The FCE17B25SC400, FCE17B25SC410, FCE17B25SC440, FCE17B25SC450, FCE17B25SC480, FCE17B25SC490, FCE17B25SC4D0, and FCE17B25SC4E0 connectors represent the direct active-production equivalents to the obsolete FCC17B25SC400. These parts maintain identical mechanical and electrical specifications while providing RoHS compliance. Selection from this series is appropriate for new designs, production continuity, and field service applications where regulatory compliance is required. All FCE17 variants are manufactured by Amphenol ICC and share the same base product platform, ensuring design compatibility and interchangeability within the specified parameter set.

Secondary Recommendation: HARTING D-Sub Receptacles

The HARTING parts 09663126600 and 09663126601 provide alternative D-Sub receptacle solutions with active product status and ROHS3 compliance. These connectors exceed the electrical and thermal specifications of the FCC17B25SC400, with higher current rating (6.5A versus 5A) and extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C). However, mechanical differences exist: backset spacing is 0.409" (10.40mm) versus 0.590" (14.99mm), flange features differ (unthreaded or M3 versus 4-40 threaded), and contact material is copper alloy rather than phosphor bronze. These parts are suitable for applications where mechanical layout accommodates the different backset spacing and where the alternative contact material meets performance requirements.

Compliance Considerations

The FCC17B25SC400 is RoHS non-compliant. Applications subject to RoHS regulations require substitution with compliant alternatives. The FCE17 series provides RoHS compliance, while HARTING parts provide ROHS3 compliance. Selection should align with applicable regulatory requirements for the target application and market.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FCE17B25SC400 directly replace the FCC17B25SC400 in existing designs?

A: Yes. The FCE17B25SC400 maintains identical mechanical and electrical specifications to the FCC17B25SC400 across all critical parameters: 25 positions, 2 rows, shell size 3 (DB, B), through-hole right-angle mounting, solder termination, 5A current rating, and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature. The primary difference is RoHS compliance status. Direct substitution is supported for applications where RoHS compliance is required or beneficial.

Q: What are the differences between the various FCE17B25SC4xx part numbers?

A: All FCE17B25SC4xx variants (SC400, SC410, SC440, SC450, SC480, SC490, SC4D0, SC4E0) share identical mechanical and electrical specifications. The suffix designations reflect internal manufacturing or configuration variations not detailed in the provided parameters. All variants are functionally equivalent for substitution purposes and maintain the same 25-position, 2-row, shell size 3 (DB, B) configuration with solder termination and 5A rating.

Q: Are the HARTING parts 09663126600 and 09663126601 direct replacements?

A: The HARTING parts provide functional D-Sub receptacle solutions with 25 positions, 2 rows, shell size 3 (DB, B), through-hole right-angle mounting, and solder termination. However, they are not direct mechanical replacements. Backset spacing differs (0.409" versus 0.590"), flange features differ (unthreaded or M3 versus 4-40 threaded), and contact material differs (copper alloy versus phosphor bronze). These parts are suitable for applications where the mechanical layout accommodates these differences and where the alternative contact material meets performance requirements.

Q: What is the significance of the backset spacing difference between Amphenol and HARTING parts?

A: Backset spacing defines the distance from the mounting flange to the rear of the connector shell. The FCC17B25SC400 and FCE17 series specify 0.590" (14.99mm), while HARTING parts specify 0.409" (10.40mm). This difference affects PCB layout and mounting depth. Substitution with HARTING parts requires verification that the reduced backset spacing is compatible with the target PCB design and mechanical envelope.

Q: Can I use HARTING parts in applications requiring phosphor bronze contacts?

A: The HARTING parts 09663126600 and 09663126601 utilize copper alloy contacts rather than phosphor bronze. If the application specifically requires phosphor bronze contact material for performance, corrosion resistance, or other technical reasons, HARTING parts are not suitable. In such cases, selection should remain within the Amphenol FCE17 series.

Q: What is the difference between the flange features on HARTING parts?

A: Part 09663126600 features an unthreaded housing/shell flange, while part 09663126601 features an M3 threaded flange. The FCC17B25SC400 and FCE17 series feature 4-40 threaded flanges. The flange type affects mounting method and mechanical interface. Selection between HARTING variants depends on the target mounting configuration and whether threaded or unthreaded attachment is required.

Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging as the FCC17B25SC400?

A: The FCC17B25SC400 packaging is not specified in the provided parameters. The FCE17 series packaging is also not specified. HARTING parts 09663126600 and 09663126601 are supplied in bulk packaging. Specific packaging requirements should be confirmed with the component supplier for each part number.

Q: What is the inventory status of substitute parts?

A: Current inventory levels are: FCE17B25SC400 (987 pcs), FCE17B25SC410 (726 pcs), FCE17B25SC440 (960 pcs), FCE17B25SC450 (1049 pcs), FCE17B25SC480 (865 pcs), FCE17B25SC490 (668 pcs), FCE17B25SC4D0 (1089 pcs), FCE17B25SC4E0 (1083 pcs), 09663126600 (734 pcs), and 09663126601 (1073 pcs). Inventory levels are subject to change and should be confirmed at the time of procurement.
