A switch is a device that connects an incoming signal to the specific output that will take the signal toward its intended destination.  In an electrical device, a switch is typically the human-to-machine interface allowing communication between man and machine.

Trafomo supplies a wide range of switches from many different switch families.  Families usually have names that give the style or function of the switch.  Good examples of families with style names are Pushbutton and Slide switches. 

Switches are available in various electric configurations and with many mechanical options, giving the user a choice between various styles and actuator lengths, contact forces and terminals.
