This keyboard is a clone of the [[IBM 3270|IBM 3270 Emulator]] and connects to PCs using either the [[PS/2]] or the [[AT]] protocol. With the IBM 3270 it shares the same style of labeling, for both the connecting PC and the mainframe computer it connects to. Keycaps are double-shot and pad-printed.

==Features==
The black legends are mostly double-shot (except for the LED window keys). All blue legends are pad-printed and clear-coated. This keyboard is not programmable. It is possible to use it with either AT or PS/2. Also, this keyboard lacks any functionality of [[n-key rollover]].

Although under the 4 removable blindcaps there are 4 key mounts and PCB traces, closing the contacts does not cause the controller to send any key codes. This might be due to controller programming (see also sister-model [[Cherry G80-2551]]).
