HyperX Linear Switches Red

The HP HyperX Linear Switches Red 85U07AA are mechanical key switches built for keyboards that require smooth, consistent actuation without tactile bump or audible click. They suit typists and gamers who prefer a linear feel across every press.

Red colour linear switch design

The red colour identifies the switch variant and provides a visual cue for linear operation, helping builders match the aesthetic of a custom keyboard build. No additional software or accessories are bundled with the switches themselves.

Simple PCB mounting

Each switch is designed for standard PCB mounting, so installation follows the usual soldering or hot-swap socket process. Builders must ensure the keyboard PCB supports the HyperX Linear Switch footprint, as incompatible layouts will prevent proper fit.
