Pricing Methodology

  • M-type switch panels are priced by overall panel size and capability
  • Each switch position utilized on the panel counts as one "point" (see numbers above)
    • Membrane style switch panels do not utilize "split switches" and must dedicate one switch point per function. Therefore, two separate switch points are needed for volume up/down controllers.
  • The LED display always counts as four (4) switch points
  • The size of the panel is determined by counting:
    1. The number of rows (the example above contains two)
    2. The number of columns (the example above contains eight)
    3. Therefore the switch panel above is a 2x9 (indicative of a VIP panel)
  • Typical switch panel sizes include:
    • Passenger Control Unit (PCU) - 1x6 through 1x11
    • VIP Panels - 1x11 through 2x10
    • Galley Panel - 2x9 through 3x14 (when utilizing water readout displays)
