==Mounting options== [[File:PCB Mount.jpg|thumb|right|A PCB mountable Cherry MX switch]] [[File:PCBvsPlate.jpg|thumb|right|Comparison between plate and PCB mount switches]] Cherry MX switches are available with additional mounting options for either a wire bridge, an LED or a [[Diode|diode]]. They are also available for either [[Switch-mounting construction|PCB or plate mounting]]. Switches for PCB mounting have two additional plastic pins to secure and stabilize them (although plate-mounted switches do not necessarily need these extra pins, as they are stabilized by the metal backplate). PCB-mounted switches can easily be converted for back-plate mounting by cutting off the extra stems. Mounting designs are specified by the last two digits of the switches' product numbers (see below).
