Editing Alps common mount low profile (section)

==Description==
This switch uses the common [[Alps mount]], unlike [[Alps SKFR/SKFS series]] which has a unique mount.<ref name="rzw" /> The [[slider]] design is similar to that of [[Alps SKCL/SKCM series]], but reduced in front-to-back depth to fit inside the switch's small shell. The contact mechanism is very similar to that of [[Alps SKFL]]; the latter is cited as prior art in the patent.

Where SKFR/SKFS series has a black slider for linear and a colourless slider for tactile, the colours are reversed with common mount low profile: black for tactile as with SKCM series, and colourless for linear.

The only branding is a minute Alps logo in the centre of the base, visible only by desoldering the switch.<ref name="rzw" />

The switch features an integrated jumper. The tactile version has a click leaf and likely arranges this in the same way as SKFR/SKFS.<ref name="tactile" /> The patent for the leaf (which curiously shows the base as rectangular instead of octagonal) describes the switch as "click-type", but a clicky version has yet to be encountered.
