Hello, I have found this keyboard on eBay:
http://jpegbay.it/gallery/005594222-.html#3
I need help to identify the connector: to me it looks like it use a sdl one, like the Model M.
The seller is not able to help me, does someone know if I'm right?
Thanks.

Yes looks like SDL, both my Olivetti ANK 25-101 also have an SDL connector.

We have had a variation but that was with a fixed cable.

Thanks for the answer. So I guess any SLD is going to work? Do you think it has the same type of rubber domes of the 25-101?

Yeah it will be the same domes for sure -- which is a good thing

In the end I decided for a cheaper ANK 27-102. Do you know if it uses the same type of domes?

Very likely but I can't say for sure as I don't have an ANK 27-10x
Have a look here:

At the very least, it looks like the keycap design is the same. Aside from the colour of the dome itself, it looks similar to the ANK 25-101.
