Narrative:
During the arrival briefing for runway 01L; a discrepancy between the printed jeppesen page 11-1 and 11-1A and the aircraft database displayed on the CDU for runway 01L was noted. The jeppesen page shows the FAF altitude for cutmo to be 2;600A; and the aircraft database shows cutmo at 2;700A. As we neared the field; we queried the controller as to the altitude they showed for cutmo; and the controller stated '2;600 feet.' I believe there is an error with the current company database for mke runway 01L FAF altitude.
