FCC17E09PC44B D-Sub Connector Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The FCC17E09PC44B is a 9-position D-Sub plug connector manufactured by Amphenol ICC (Commercial Products) with right-angle through-hole solder termination. This connector features male pins, board-side flange mounting (4-40), and is designed for signal applications in industrial and commercial equipment.

The FCC17E09PC44B is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support legacy system maintenance and repairs. Active alternatives from Amphenol ICC and compatible manufacturers provide functional equivalence with improved availability and compliance status.

Backset spacing (0.590" / 14.99mm)
Features (Filter, Grounding Indents, Mounting Brackets)

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Active Status): Direct functional equivalents with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. These parts differ only in product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and RoHS compliance status. The FCE17 series represents the active production line replacement for the obsolete FCC17 series.
HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816 (Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives): These parts meet core D-Sub 9-position plug specifications but exhibit variations in backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590"), flange feature type (Housing/Shell M3 vs. Board Side 4-40), contact material (Copper Alloy vs. Phosphor Bronze), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C). These differences require design verification before implementation.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Amphenol ICC FCE17 Series (Recommended Primary Substitutes)

The FCE17E09PC44B, FCE17E09PC40B, FCE17E09PC41B, FCE17E09PC45B, FCE17E09PC48B, FCE17E09PC49B, FCE17E09PC4DB, and FCE17E09PC4EB represent the active production equivalents to the obsolete FCC17E09PC44B. These parts maintain identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters:

Connector configuration: 9-position D-Sub plug with male pins
Shell size and layout: 1 (DE, E)
Mounting: Through-hole, right-angle with board-side 4-40 flange
Electrical performance: 5A current rating, UL94 V-0 flammability rating
Operating temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C
Contact specifications: Gold-plated phosphor bronze with 15.0µin thickness
Backset spacing: 0.590" (14.99mm)
Termination: Solder

The primary distinction is product status and regulatory compliance. All FCE17 variants are Active and RoHS Compliant, whereas the FCC17E09PC44B is Obsolete and RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or systems requiring RoHS compliance, the FCE17 series is the appropriate selection. For legacy system maintenance where RoHS compliance is not mandated, any FCE17 variant provides functional equivalence.

HARTING 09651626815 and 09651626816 (Cross-Manufacturer Alternatives)

The HARTING parts 09651626815 and 09651626816 meet the core D-Sub 9-position plug specification but introduce design variations that require evaluation:

Differences from FCC17E09PC44B:

Backset Spacing: 0.409" (10.40mm) versus 0.590" (14.99mm). This dimensional difference affects PCB layout compatibility and connector positioning. Direct substitution requires PCB redesign.
Flange Feature: Housing/Shell (M3) versus Board Side (4-40). The mounting interface differs, requiring mechanical redesign of mounting provisions.
Contact Material: Copper Alloy versus Phosphor Bronze. This material change affects contact resistance and wear characteristics.
Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 125°C versus -40°C ~ 85°C. The HARTING parts support extended temperature operation beyond the original specification.
Contact Finish: Not specified for HARTING parts versus Gold-plated for Amphenol parts.

The HARTING parts are suitable for applications where extended temperature operation is required and PCB layout can accommodate the reduced backset spacing. These parts are not direct drop-in replacements and require design verification.

Compliance and Regulatory Status

All substitute parts carry UL94 V-0 flammability certification and MSL 1 (Unlimited) moisture sensitivity rating, matching the original part. The FCE17 series provides improved regulatory compliance through RoHS Compliant status. The HARTING parts carry ROHS3 Compliant status with REACH Unaffected designation, suitable for European market applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can FCE17E09PC44B be used as a direct replacement for FCC17E09PC44B?

A: Yes. The FCE17E09PC44B is a direct functional equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The primary differences are product status (Active vs. Obsolete) and RoHS compliance status (Compliant vs. non-compliant). No design changes are required for substitution.

Q: What is the difference between the various FCE17 part numbers (PC40B, PC41B, PC45B, PC48B, PC49B, PC4DB, PC4EB)?

A: All FCE17 variants share identical electrical and mechanical specifications. The alphanumeric suffix (PC40B through PC4EB) represents internal Amphenol ICC manufacturing or configuration codes that do not affect functional performance or compatibility. All variants are electrically and mechanically interchangeable.

Q: Are the HARTING parts 09651626815 and 09651626816 direct replacements?

A: No. While both HARTING parts meet the core D-Sub 9-position plug specification, they differ in backset spacing (0.409" vs. 0.590"), flange mounting type (Housing/Shell M3 vs. Board Side 4-40), contact material (Copper Alloy vs. Phosphor Bronze), and operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C vs. -40°C ~ 85°C). These differences require PCB layout redesign and mechanical mounting redesign. The HARTING parts are suitable only for applications where these dimensional and material changes are acceptable.

Q: What is backset spacing and why does it matter?

A: Backset spacing is the distance from the rear of the connector shell to the solder pins. The FCC17E09PC44B and all FCE17 variants specify 0.590" (14.99mm), while HARTING parts specify 0.409" (10.40mm). This dimension determines the connector's position relative to the PCB edge and affects component placement and routing. Mismatched backset spacing requires PCB redesign.

Q: Can I use a HARTING part if my application requires extended temperature operation?

A: The HARTING parts support -55°C ~ 125°C operation versus -40°C ~ 85°C for the Amphenol parts. If extended temperature operation is required, HARTING parts provide this capability. However, the dimensional and material differences still require design verification and PCB layout changes.

Q: What is the difference between RoHS Compliant and ROHS3 Compliant?

A: RoHS Compliant indicates compliance with the original Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive. ROHS3 Compliant indicates compliance with RoHS 3 (Directive 2015/863/EU), which includes additional restricted substances. Both designations indicate compliance with hazardous substance restrictions. ROHS3 represents the current regulatory standard in the European Union.

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

A: No. The FCC17E09PC44B and FCE17 variants are supplied in standard packaging. The HARTING 09651626815 is supplied in Bulk packaging, while 09651626816 is supplied in Bag packaging. Packaging differences do not affect connector functionality but may affect handling and storage procedures.

Q: What is the contact finish thickness and why is it specified?

A: Contact finish thickness (15.0µin or 0.38µm for Amphenol parts) specifies the gold plating depth on the contact surfaces. This thickness ensures adequate corrosion resistance and electrical conductivity over the connector's operational life. The HARTING parts do not specify contact finish thickness, indicating either different plating specifications or unplated contacts.

Q: Can I mix and match different FCE17 variants in the same application?

A: Yes. All FCE17 variants (PC40B, PC41B, PC45B, PC48B, PC49B, PC4DB, PC4EB) are electrically and mechanically identical and fully interchangeable. Mixing variants within the same application introduces no compatibility issues.

Q: What inventory levels are available for each substitute part?

A: Current inventory levels are: FCC17E09PC44B (1048 Pcs), FCE17E09PC44B (854 Pcs), FCE17E09PC40B (950 Pcs), FCE17E09PC41B (661 Pcs), FCE17E09PC45B (783 Pcs), FCE17E09PC48B (967 Pcs), FCE17E09PC49B (912 Pcs), FCE17E09PC4DB (1023 Pcs), FCE17E09PC4EB (975 Pcs), 09651626815 (829 Pcs), and 09651626816 (911 Pcs). Inventory levels are subject to change and should be confirmed at time of procurement.
