Chicony KB-5160 is a series of keyboards from Chicony, styled after the IBM Model F AT.
Description
The case is shallower front-to-back than the Model F, but the layout is identical.
The KB-5160 was followed by the Chicony KB-5161, which took on the overall IBM Model M key layout, but retained the single-unit backspace key and big-ass enter key of the Model F and 5160.
While this keyboard is typically referred to as the "5160", the PCB[1] and plate both describe the product as the "KB-5160".
