I think this is a proprietary (?) connector as made by Fujitsu for their "FM Towns" line of personal computers.

You can see it on the front of the computer here.

I have a very similar board, a Fujitsu N860-2500-T111. Similar type connector. I couldn't find any existing protocol converter then (and am not aware of any currently) and so ended up doing a controller replacement using the Teensy2.0++. I posted more details including the keyboard matrix and the IC pins for each row/column here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=17087
I suspect you will need to go this route too in order to get the board working on a modern PC, unless someone else is aware of someone coming up with a protocol converter. Also, you will need to double check things on your board since it may not be identical to mine.
