These were made by Alps in both Mexico and the Czech Republic. There are some differences between units from either location, the Czech-made units have dye sublimated PBT keycaps while the Mexican ones have pad printed ABS. The thin metal plate is held to the membrane assembly using the "melted plastic rivet" technique.

Aside from the country of manufacture, the other way to readily distinguish this variant from the others is the presence of three (rather than four) screw holes on the bottom of the case.

Keycaps are OEM profile, with a 1.5, 1.25, 1.5, 6.5, 1.5, 1.25, 1.5 unit bottom row. Caps lock has an offset slider lining up with the Tab key above it. Stabilizing wire is hinged on the keys and slides in recesses on the membrane assembly.
