Same brake calipers on front and back?

C4S 2004, Brembo brakes. 

The brake warning message came on telling me to change my pads. Not knowing which wheel it related to i ordered pads and sensors for both front and rear wheels. I got prices from two suppliers and both advised the rear pads were Brembo 44H383 and front were Brembo 44H153.

When i received the pads and removed the rear wheels i found the calipers were the same as the ones on the front wheels, 44H153, however the wire sensors were different on the rear and seem to be a combination brake pad and wheel speed sensor?

 

Why would the rear calipers not be as listed for the car?

Is there a combination sensor available as I can’t seem to find one?

Incidentally, none of the sensors were damaged and all brake pads had plenty of wear left on them, however both of the front pads retaining pins are seized solid and i can’t remove them. But that’s another issue.
