It uses membrane technology to protect keys from dust, liquids, see pic #4 for the type of key switch slider.

Looks very much like a dome with slider design, possibly BTC?

I know, that's why. BTC dome with slider IS MX compatible.

BTC keyboards often have a 1.25 Esc key and a metal bottom, and the switch does not look quite like it.

The FCC ID lookup reveals "Dih Shin Industries Co Ltd" in Taipei, Taiwan. 1990. but that doesn't tell me anything.
There are lots of variants of MX-compatible sliders over domes.
