FCC17C37PC25B D-Sub 37-Position Right Angle Solder Plug Connector
Part Overview
The FCC17C37PC25B is a 37-position D-Sub plug connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) with right-angle through-hole solder termination. This connector is classified as obsolete, indicating that direct replacements or parametric equivalents are necessary for new designs and ongoing production requirements. The connector features a male pin configuration with a 2-row layout in shell size 4 (DC, C) and is designed for signal applications with a 5A current rating and 200V voltage rating.
Due to its obsolete product status, sourcing alternatives that maintain electrical and mechanical compatibility is essential for system continuity and design flexibility.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution of the FCC17C37PC25B is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:
Mandatory Matching Parameters:
- Connector Style: D-Sub
- Connector Type: Plug, Male Pins
- Number of Positions: 37
- Number of Rows: 2
- Shell Size, Connector Layout: 4 (DC, C)
- Mounting Type: Through Hole, Right Angle
- Termination: Solder
- Current Rating (Amps): 5A
- Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C
- Material Flammability Rating: UL94 V-0
- Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)
Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:
Category 1: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Active Status) The FCE17C37PC25B, FCE17C37PC20B, FCE17C37PC21B, FCE17C37PC24B, FCE17C37PC28B, FCE17C37PC29B, FCE17C37PC2DB, and FCE17C37PC2EB represent parametric equivalents from Amphenol ICC's active product line. These connectors maintain all critical electrical and mechanical parameters while offering RoHS compliance and active product status. Variations in the part number suffix (PC20B through PC2EB) indicate different dielectric material formulations or internal design revisions that do not affect functional compatibility.
Category 2: HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800 (Active Status) These HARTING connectors provide functional equivalence with notable parameter variations. While maintaining the core D-Sub 37-position right-angle solder configuration, these parts feature a higher current rating (6.5A versus 5A), different backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), stamped contact form, and an extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C). These differences indicate suitability for applications with higher current demands or broader thermal requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
Primary Recommendation: Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series
The FCE17C37PC25B is the direct functional equivalent to the obsolete FCC17C37PC25B, offering identical electrical and mechanical specifications with the advantage of active product status. This connector is recommended for new designs and production applications requiring direct compatibility with existing FCC17 installations. The FCE17 series provides RoHS compliance, addressing regulatory requirements that the original FCC17 part does not meet.
Among the FCE17 variants (FCE17C37PC20B, FCE17C37PC21B, FCE17C37PC24B, FCE17C37PC28B, FCE17C37PC29B, FCE17C37PC2DB, FCE17C37PC2EB), all maintain identical electrical performance and operating parameters. Selection among these variants should be based on internal design specifications or dielectric material requirements specific to the application, as these differences do not affect functional compatibility.
Secondary Recommendation: HARTING 09654226800 or 09654227800
The HARTING connectors provide functional equivalence with enhanced electrical and thermal capabilities. These parts are suitable for applications requiring higher current capacity (6.5A versus 5A) or extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C). The HARTING parts feature stamped contact construction and copper alloy contact material, differing from the machined phosphor bronze contacts of the Amphenol ICC parts. ROHS3 compliance status indicates these parts meet current regulatory standards.
Compliance Considerations
The FCC17C37PC25B is RoHS non-compliant. All recommended substitutes (FCE17 series and HARTING parts) are RoHS compliant or ROHS3 compliant, making them suitable for applications subject to RoHS regulations. All substitute parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability rating and MSL 1 classification, ensuring compatibility with standard manufacturing and storage practices.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can the FCE17C37PC25B be used as a direct replacement for the FCC17C37PC25B?
A: Yes. The FCE17C37PC25B maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications including 37-position configuration, 5A current rating, 200V voltage rating, -40°C to 85°C operating temperature, and right-angle through-hole solder termination. The primary difference is active product status and RoHS compliance.
Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17C37PC variants (PC20B, PC21B, PC24B, PC28B, PC29B, PC2DB, PC2EB)?
A: The suffix variations indicate different dielectric material formulations or internal design revisions. All variants maintain identical electrical performance, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature, and mechanical configuration. Selection among variants should be based on specific application requirements or internal design specifications.
Q: Are the HARTING 09654226800 and 09654227800 connectors fully compatible with the FCC17C37PC25B?
A: These HARTING connectors provide functional equivalence for the core D-Sub 37-position right-angle solder configuration. However, they feature a higher current rating (6.5A versus 5A), different backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590"), extended operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C), and different contact material (copper alloy versus phosphor bronze). These differences indicate suitability for enhanced performance applications but require verification of mechanical fit and electrical requirements for the specific application.
Q: What is the significance of the RoHS compliance difference?
A: The FCC17C37PC25B is RoHS non-compliant, while all recommended substitutes are RoHS compliant or ROHS3 compliant. RoHS compliance restricts the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. For applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements, the compliant substitutes are necessary.
Q: Can I use the HARTING connectors in applications designed for the Amphenol ICC parts?
A: The HARTING connectors maintain the same D-Sub 37-position right-angle solder configuration and can function in applications designed for the Amphenol ICC parts. However, the different backset spacing (0.409" versus 0.590") may affect mechanical fit on printed circuit boards. Verification of PCB layout compatibility is required before substitution.
Q: What is the difference between machined and stamped contact forms?
A: The FCC17C37PC25B and FCE17 series use machined contact construction, while the HARTING parts use stamped contacts. Machined contacts typically provide higher precision and reliability, while stamped contacts offer cost efficiency. Both contact forms meet the specified electrical requirements and current ratings.
Q: Are all substitute parts available in the same packaging?
A: The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series parts are available in standard packaging. The HARTING parts are specified as bulk packaging. Packaging differences do not affect connector functionality but may influence procurement and handling procedures.
Q: What is MSL 1 (Unlimited) classification?
A: MSL 1 (Unlimited) indicates that the connector has unlimited shelf life and does not require special moisture control during storage or handling. This classification applies to all listed parts and simplifies inventory management and logistics.
