Described and illustrated is a passenger supply unit (13) for an aircraft cabin (1), comprising an input device (21) configured for detecting a control command from a passenger (23), and for outputting a control signal to a further device (25) for controlling the further device (25) according to the control command. The object of the present invention, to provide a passenger supply unit that can be controlled by a passenger independent of its height above the passenger seat, and that is constructed considerably simple and independent from an in-flight entertainment system, is achieved in that the input device (21) comprises a contact free sensor (29) configured to detect the control command without being contacted by a passenger (23).
