XSZ-made 50-key point-of-sale keyboard with integrated magnetic stripe reader in the IBM Retail POS (RPOS) keyboard family and replacement to the earlier IBM 4680 series 50-Key Modifiable Layout Keyboard. These were used with IBM SurePOS series terminals. This is the iron grey version that used an USB interface via a 4-pin IDC to Type-A USB or 12V PoweredUSB cable. These exclusively used pad-printed legends for its Ctrl and numeric keypad keys compared to its earlier pearl white/grey counterpart.
