Shell size and layout (3 / DB, B)
Mounting type (Through Hole, Right Angle)
Termination method (Solder)
Shell material and finish (Steel, Tin Plated)
Contact finish (Gold)
Contact finish thickness (15.0µin / 0.38µm)
Current rating (5A)
Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
Material flammability rating (UL94 V-0)
Contact material (Phosphor Bronze)
Backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm)
Flange feature (Board Side with 4-40 mounting)
Features (Filter, Mounting Brackets)

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Category 1: Direct Series Equivalents (Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series) Parts FCE17B25SC41B, FCE17B25SC40B, FCE17B25SC44B, FCE17B25SC45B, FCE17B25SC48B, FCE17B25SC49B, FCE17B25SC4DB, and FCE17B25SC4EB maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters. These parts differ only in internal filter or contact configuration variants (indicated by the final suffix characters) and are all active products with RoHS compliance. The FCE17 series represents the current production equivalent to the obsolete FCC17 series.

Category 2: Alternative Manufacturer Equivalents (HARTING) Parts 09663126600 and 09663126601 from HARTING provide functional equivalence with notable parameter variations. These alternatives maintain the core D-Sub 25 position receptacle configuration, through-hole right-angle mounting, and solder termination. However, they differ in backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590"), flange feature design (Housing/Shell vs. Board Side 4-40), contact form (Stamped vs. Machined), current rating (6.5A vs. 5A), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C).

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series

For applications requiring direct functional and electrical equivalence to the FCC17B25SC41B, the Amphenol ICC FCE17 series connectors (FCE17B25SC41B, FCE17B25SC40B, FCE17B25SC44B, FCE17B25SC45B, FCE17B25SC48B, FCE17B25SC49B, FCE17B25SC4DB, FCE17B25SC4EB) are the appropriate substitutes. All FCE17 variants maintain identical mechanical mounting interfaces, electrical ratings, and thermal operating ranges as the original FCC17B25SC41B. The FCE17 series represents the current production line from Amphenol ICC and carries RoHS compliance certification, addressing regulatory requirements for new designs and manufacturing.

The suffix variations in the FCE17 part numbers (SC40B, SC41B, SC44B, SC45B, SC48B, SC49B, SC4DB, SC4EB) indicate internal filter or contact configuration differences that do not affect external mechanical or electrical compatibility. Selection among these variants depends on specific application filtering or contact requirements.

Secondary Recommendation: HARTING 09663126600 / 09663126601

The HARTING alternatives (09663126600 and 09663126601) provide functional D-Sub 25 position receptacle capability with enhanced operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C) and higher current rating (6.5A). These parts are suitable for applications requiring extended thermal performance beyond the original specification. However, implementation requires design verification due to differences in backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590"), flange mounting interface (Housing/Shell vs. Board Side 4-40), and contact material (Copper Alloy vs. Phosphor Bronze). The HARTING parts carry ROHS3 compliance and are active products.

Compliance Considerations

The original FCC17B25SC41B is RoHS non-compliant. All Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes are RoHS compliant, and HARTING alternatives are ROHS3 compliant. New designs and production transitions should incorporate RoHS-compliant alternatives to meet current regulatory standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17B25SC41B be used as a direct replacement for FCC17B25SC41B?

A: Yes. The FCE17B25SC41B maintains identical electrical ratings (5A, 200V), mechanical mounting configuration (through-hole right-angle with board-side 4-40 flange), termination method (solder), shell material and finish (steel, tin plated), contact finish (gold, 15.0µin), operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C), and all other critical parameters. The primary difference is product status (active vs. obsolete) and RoHS compliance.

Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17B25SC4xB part numbers?

A: The FCE17B25SC4xB variants (where x represents different suffix characters: 0, 1, 4, 5, 8, D, E) differ in internal filter or contact configuration specifications. All variants maintain identical external mechanical interfaces, electrical ratings, and thermal performance. Selection should be based on specific application filtering or contact requirements as defined in the respective datasheets.

Q: Are HARTING 09663126600 and 09663126601 fully compatible with FCC17B25SC41B?

A: HARTING parts provide functional equivalence as 25 position D-Sub receptacles with through-hole right-angle solder termination. However, they differ in backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590"), flange mounting design (Housing/Shell vs. Board Side 4-40), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C). These differences require design verification before implementation. The HARTING parts are suitable for applications requiring extended thermal performance.

Q: What is the difference between HARTING 09663126600 and 09663126601?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent 25 position D-Sub receptacles. The primary difference is the flange feature: 09663126600 has an unthreaded housing/shell flange, while 09663126601 has an M3 threaded housing/shell flange. Selection depends on the specific mounting interface required by the application.

Q: Why is the original FCC17B25SC41B marked as obsolete?

A: The FCC17B25SC41B is classified as obsolete by Amphenol ICC. The FCE17 series represents the current production equivalent. Amphenol ICC recommends transitioning to the FCE17 series for new designs and ongoing production to ensure long-term supply availability and compliance with current regulatory standards.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series substitutes are RoHS compliant. The HARTING alternatives (09663126600 and 09663126601) are ROHS3 compliant. The original FCC17B25SC41B is RoHS non-compliant. New designs should incorporate RoHS-compliant alternatives.

Q: What packaging options are available for these connectors?

A: Amphenol ICC FCE17B25SC49B is available in Box packaging. Most other variants are supplied in standard packaging. HARTING parts (09663126600 and 09663126601) are supplied in Bulk packaging. Packaging specifications should be confirmed with the supplier for specific procurement requirements.

Q: Can I use a substitute part with a higher current rating (6.5A) in place of the 5A rated original?

A: The HARTING alternatives are rated for 6.5A, exceeding the original 5A specification. Use of a higher-rated component does not create compatibility issues for applications designed for 5A operation. However, design verification is required due to other parameter differences (backset spacing, flange design, operating temperature range).

Q: What is the significance of the contact finish thickness specification (15.0µin)?

A: The contact finish thickness of 15.0µin (0.38µm) specifies the gold plating depth on the contact surfaces. This specification ensures consistent electrical contact resistance and corrosion protection. Amphenol ICC FCE17 series parts maintain this specification. HARTING parts do not specify contact finish thickness, requiring clarification from the manufacturer for critical applications.

Q: Are there any inventory considerations when selecting a substitute?

A: Current inventory levels are: FCC17B25SC41B (1161 pcs), FCE17B25SC41B (936 pcs), FCE17B25SC40B (856 pcs), FCE17B25SC44B (959 pcs), FCE17B25SC45B (749 pcs), FCE17B25SC48B (931 pcs), FCE17B25SC49B (1008 pcs), FCE17B25SC4DB (1053 pcs), FCE17B25SC4EB (657 pcs), HARTING 09663126600 (734 pcs), and HARTING 09663126601 (1073 pcs). Inventory levels should be confirmed with the supplier for specific procurement timelines.
