Qtronix KT-30 is a keyboard featuring a large three-button trackball. The design is similar to the Cherry G80-1800, but with the lock LEDs to the left of the function key row instead of to its right. Where Cherry added a small trackball by raising the numeric keypad in the Cherry G80-11800, Qtronix placed a much larger trackball to the far right.
The keyboard is XT/AT switchable, with a serial lead for the trackball.
Instances with Cherry MX Blue switches are documented here. There are apparently other variants of this board with different switches.

KT-30BP[edit | edit source]
This keyboard has vintage Cherry MX Blue switches.
The keycaps are a mix of double-shot and dye-sub. The 1u keycaps are double-shot. All others are dye-sub. They seem to be Tai-Hao.
The PCB design includes anti-ghosting diodes.
