Cherry SX keyswitch tech?

(1/2) > >>

Eclairz:
Strangely while browsing cherry site i cam across this new keyboard it says SX key technology but rated for only 10million keystrokes is this another form of membrane with gold perchance?

Judging from how the keys look, this appears to be a scissor-switch 'board. The "silent operation" would also suggest that, at the very least, it is a rubber dome.  The low profile keys would reinforce the rubber dome (with scissor) conclusion.  It could be some type of ML hybrid, but I doubt it.

lal:
SX is a standard scissor type switch as found in most laptops. MX and ML are the only desirable Cherry switches. Impressive abbreviations for crappy Cherry "switches" include FSTC, NTK, ATK, SX and LPK.

itlnstln:
SX is short for SUX.

cchan:
FTSC is, in my opinion, short for F--- This S--tty Crap.
