Classification of hFE
The 2SC2458 transistor can have a current gain of 70 to 700. The gain of the 2SC2458-BL will be in the range from 300 to 700, for the 2SC2458-GR it will be in the range from 200 to 400, for the 2SC2458-O it will be in the range from 70 to 140, for the 2SC2458-Y it will be in the range from 120 to 240.
Marking
Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SC2458 might only be marked "C2458".
Complementary PNP transistor
The complementary PNP transistor to the 2SC2458 is the 2SA1048.
