**Alps SKCC Tall Cream** is a linear switch in the Alps SKCC Series.
==== Characteristics ====
The switch follows the general characteristics of the SKCC family, consisting of an upper and lower housing, [[:terminology:contact_module|contact module]], [[:terminology:stem|stem]], and spring.
The stem, which is a cream color, is always lubricated and is likely made of a nylon blend((supposition based on materials in first generation SKCM/SKCL)). It is significantly taller than [[switch:alps_skcc_cream|Alps SKCC Cream]] and has a different mount but in all other regards is otherwise identical.
Alps SKCC Tall Cream, like all SKCC series switches, uses a contact module to register the keypress. This sits in the middle of the housing opposite the spring.
==== Additional Information ====
The switch has only been seen in Apple and Apple-related keyboards. The switch mount is different to others in the SKCC series, keycap compatibility may vary.
