I'm wondering, what namely manufacturer it is? My ViewSonic's one comes
with good docs, and in addition all the required information is engraved
on its case...

The CAD program I'm using doesn't support exporting as a picture, so
it's simple screenshot; the upper part with connector's descriptions is
stripped off, but I believe you'll easily identify them.

Generally, I see no difference between our schematics! :-)
