Found this absolute unit of a keyboard in a dumpster outside an old abandoned factory. And i need help identifying it!

Copy & paste comment from the reddit post that lead me here:

I assume its for some sort of terminal. On the note on the side theres no serial or anything, it says "replacement part", some gibberish, and then its dated at the bottom. 3.5.90(european way of writing a date. The correct way :^) )

Any questions? I'd be happy to answer!

Edit: Some words. Also, there is no serial number or anything on the keyboard..

Well, for whatever it's worth, the keycaps appear to be the same family that was used on the Amstrad CPC 464. Don't know if that helps narrow anything down though. Pretty sure I've seen them on a few seemingly unrelated boards.

Can you take it apart and post some pictures?

The first rule of identification is to pull the cap so we can see the switch.

Here you go!


I think i'll take it apart tomorrow to see if theres any text or something on the PCBs that would help.
