MCS-F5D Slimline Switch Unit

The MCS-F5D Slimline Switch Unit 10-Way Slimline Switch Unit was specifically developed to fit above the radio DIN aperture in a Vauxhall Astra beat car.

This switch unit consists of 10 buttons (8 small and 2 large) with appropriate legend and key colour.

As this switch unit is designed primarily for permanent mounting within a dashboard, public address would be implemented via a separate hand held microphone with integral PTT switch.

Designed to be a permanently mounted switch panel, the reverse of the MCS-F5D Slimline Switch Unit has two M4 threaded inserts to facilitate the use of a mounting bracket (not supplied) or fix directly to the surface.

MCS Switch Units are produced to your own individual requirements. Configuration Specification Sheets can be found in tab below. If you don’t see what you need please contact our dedicated sales team who will be happy to help.

5-Way MCS-F5 also available with 5 buttons (5 small or 4 small and one large).

15-Way MCS-F5T also available with 15 buttons (13 small and 2 large).

Each button can be independently configured in terms of operation, legend designation and even back light colour, therefore it is the ideal interface for controlling a variety of vehicle based hazard warning systems including the MCS range of control systems.
