LEOPOLD Launches 'FC220TP PD' High-End Numeric Keypad with 3-Way Connectivity and VIA Support

LEOPOLD Co., Ltd. (Location: Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture, CEO: Masashi Kimura) will launch the 'FC220TP PD' series on Tuesday, May 26, 2026. This high-end numeric keypad features 3-way connectivity, blending a flexible wireless environment with trending functionalities. The lineup introduces two models: the 'FC220TP PD GRAYBLUE', which offers a modern and sharp impression, and the 'FC220TP PD ASHWHITE', designed to complement minimalist desk setups. The greatest feature of this product is its full support for 3 connection modes (3-way): Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, and USB wired, making it a perfect fit for diverse modern work styles. Furthermore, it supports 'QMK/VIA' which allows users to freely change the keymap via a web browser, and features a 'key switch hot-swap mechanism' that enables swapping to commercially available compatible key switches according to preference. In addition, 'high-density sound-absorbing foam/pads' are packed inside the housing to thoroughly reduce unpleasant metallic reverberations. ■ Main Features of the 'FC220TP PD' Series 1. Equipped with a 3-way connection mode (Bluetooth / 2.4GHz / Wired) compatible with various devices Users can seamlessly select the optimal communication method to match their usage scenario. It covers everything from establishing a wireless desk to a wired environment prioritizing connection stability with just one device. 2. Freely customize keymaps. QMK/VIA firmware supported Fully supports 'QMK' and 'VIA'. Without installing dedicated software, users can access the VIA website from a compatible web browser to freely change key assignments and macro settings, allowing it to be used as an independent shortcut pad or left-hand device. (*The use of VIA settings is limited to wired connection only) 3. Key switch hot-swap mechanism for easy changes to preferred typing feel Adopts a hot-swap socket that allows for the detachment and replacement of commercially available MX-compatible mechanical switches (3-pin/5-pin compatible) without soldering. Users can update their typing feel by changing to their preferred key switches themselves. 4. Built-in high-density sound-absorbing foam/pads for ultimate reverberation reduction Built-in layered structure of high-density sound-absorbing foam and pads that fill the hollow space inside the case. This shuts out the unpleasant metallic reverberation when the switch bottoms out, directly conveying the switch sound and achieving a solid typing feel. 5. Original PBT double-shot keycaps Comes standard with LEOPOLD's original PBT double-shot keycaps, which have been well-received in other LEOPOLD keyboards. Because the characters themselves are molded from resin, they are highly resistant to wear and the letters will not fade even with prolonged use. The PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) resin used is hard and highly wear-resistant, acting as an engineering plastic used in automotive interior parts. The rough and deep texturing on the top surface, combined with the characteristics of the PBT resin which resists shining and has a matte texture, produces a chic appearance. 6. Key switches selected to match trends. 4 types of initial switches chosen. Two LEOPOLD original mechanical switches, a first for the brand, and two types of switches manufactured by Kailh have been carefully selected. ● LEOPOLD Original Linear Switch ● LEOPOLD Original Silent Linear Switch ● Kailh Indigo Naturalis Silent Linear Switch ● Kailh Midnight Pro Silent Tactile Switch 7. Wired connection only: 'NumLock Independent Mode' equipped Turning on a hidden switch activates the 'NumLock Independent Mode', which is limited to USB wired connections. It supports comfortable numerical input on the keypad side without disturbing the keyboard input on the notebook PC side, demonstrating immense effectiveness in business scenes or when used alongside a notebook PC. ■ Main Product Specifications Series Name: FC220TP Series Product Name (Color): 　FC220TP PD GRAYBLUE 　FC220TP PD ASHWHITE Product Lineup (Product Model Number [Equipped Switch]): 　FC220TPHL/GBP
