FCC17C37SB2DB D-Sub Receptacle 37 Position Equivalent & Substitute Parts
Part Overview
The FCC17C37SB2DB is a 37 position D-Sub receptacle connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products). This through-hole, right-angle solder termination connector features female sockets with a 2-row configuration in shell size 4 (DC, C). The part is classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of active equivalent and substitute components for ongoing design support and procurement continuity. Equivalent parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical parameters, while substitute parts satisfy the core functional requirements within acceptable parameter tolerances.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution of the FCC17C37SB2DB is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters: connector style (D-Sub), connector type (receptacle, female sockets), number of positions (37), number of rows (2), shell size (4 DC, C), mounting type (through hole, right angle), termination method (solder), shell material and finish (steel, tin plated), contact finish (gold), contact finish thickness (15.0µin), current rating (5A), backset spacing (0.405"), operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C), material flammability rating (UL94 V-0), contact material (phosphor bronze), and dielectric material (thermoplastic, glass filled).
Amphenol ICC FCE17 series parts (FCE17C37SB2DB, FCE17C37SB20B, FCE17C37SB21B, FCE17C37SB24B, FCE17C37SB25B, FCE17C37SB28B, FCE17C37SB29B, FCE17C37SB2EB) are parametric equivalents that satisfy all critical electrical and mechanical requirements. These parts differ only in internal design variations not affecting external form, fit, or function. All FCE17 variants are active products with RoHS compliance status.
HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 are similar D-Sub receptacle connectors with 37 positions, 2 rows, shell size 4, through-hole right-angle solder termination, and steel construction. These parts maintain functional compatibility but exhibit variations in backset spacing, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, contact material, and dielectric material composition. These differences require engineering evaluation for specific application requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations
The Amphenol ICC FCE17 series represents the primary equivalent replacement path for the obsolete FCC17C37SB2DB. All FCE17 variants (FCE17C37SB2DB, FCE17C37SB20B, FCE17C37SB21B, FCE17C37SB24B, FCE17C37SB25B, FCE17C37SB28B, FCE17C37SB29B, FCE17C37SB2EB) maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications while offering active product status and RoHS compliance. These parts are direct form, fit, and function replacements suitable for new designs and legacy system support.
HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 are functionally compatible alternatives that satisfy the core D-Sub receptacle 37-position requirements. However, these parts exhibit parameter variations including higher current ratings (7.5A and 6.5A respectively versus 5A), extended operating temperature ranges (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C), different dielectric materials, and backset spacing tolerances. Selection of HARTING alternatives requires confirmation that application requirements accommodate these parameter differences.
All recommended parts maintain UL94 V-0 flammability compliance and MSL 1 moisture sensitivity rating. RoHS compliance status differs between the obsolete FCC17C37SB2DB (non-compliant) and all active alternatives (compliant or ROHS3 compliant), which may influence procurement decisions for regulated applications.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can FCE17C37SB2DB directly replace FCC17C37SB2DB without design modification?
A: Yes. The FCE17C37SB2DB is a parametric equivalent that maintains identical electrical and mechanical specifications including connector style, position count, shell size, mounting type, termination method, current rating, voltage rating, operating temperature range, and material specifications. The primary difference is product status (active versus obsolete) and RoHS compliance.
Q: What distinguishes the multiple FCE17 variants (SB20B, SB21B, SB24B, SB25B, SB28B, SB29B, SB2EB)?
A: All FCE17 variants share identical external form, fit, and function parameters. Internal design variations are not specified in the provided data. Selection among these variants should be based on availability, lead time, and internal design requirements specific to the application.
Q: Are HARTING parts 09644147232 and 09664127600 direct replacements?
A: HARTING parts are functionally compatible but not direct replacements. They maintain the 37-position D-Sub receptacle configuration with through-hole right-angle solder termination. However, they differ in current rating (7.5A and 6.5A versus 5A), operating temperature range (-55°C to 125°C versus -40°C to 85°C), contact material (copper alloy versus phosphor bronze), dielectric material composition, and backset spacing. Applications operating within the original FCC17C37SB2DB specifications (5A, -40°C to 85°C) should prioritize Amphenol ICC FCE17 equivalents.
Q: What is the significance of backset spacing variations?
A: Backset spacing defines the distance from the connector mounting surface to the contact plane. The FCC17C37SB2DB specifies 0.405" (10.29mm). HARTING 09644147232 specifies 0.401" (10.20mm) and 09664127600 specifies 0.409" (10.40mm). These variations may affect PCB layout compatibility and mating connector alignment. Designs with tight mechanical tolerances require confirmation of backset spacing compatibility.
Q: Why do FCE17 variants show "Not Specified" for voltage rating?
A: The provided data indicates voltage rating as not specified for FCE17 variants, while the original FCC17C37SB2DB specifies 200V. This represents a data documentation difference rather than a functional limitation. Amphenol ICC FCE17 series connectors are designed for equivalent electrical performance. Applications requiring explicit voltage rating confirmation should consult manufacturer datasheets.
Q: What is the impact of RoHS compliance status on part selection?
A: The original FCC17C37SB2DB is RoHS non-compliant. All Amphenol ICC FCE17 variants are RoHS compliant, and HARTING alternatives are ROHS3 compliant. Regulatory requirements for new designs, particularly in European markets, typically mandate RoHS compliance. Legacy system repairs may accommodate non-compliant components depending on application classification and regulatory jurisdiction.
Q: How do contact material differences affect connector performance?
A: The FCC17C37SB2DB and all FCE17 variants specify phosphor bronze contacts with 15.0µin gold plating. HARTING alternatives specify copper alloy contacts without specified plating. Phosphor bronze provides superior spring characteristics and contact reliability. Applications requiring specific contact material specifications should prioritize Amphenol ICC FCE17 equivalents.
Q: Are there packaging differences between equivalent parts?
A: The provided data indicates packaging as not specified for most parts. Amphenol ICC parts are listed with bulk packaging for HARTING alternatives. Procurement should confirm packaging configuration (tape and reel, bulk, or tray) based on assembly requirements and inventory management practices.
