Ethernet Plug for IDC Harness Assembly — Hirose TM-P Series
It carries gold-plated phosphor bronze contacts rated for 125V at 500 mA per circuit — a signal-level Ethernet interconnect, not a power pass-through. The translucent clear polycarbonate housing lets the wire colour bands show through for visual continuity checks after termination.
Last Buy — Sourcing and Replacement Path
The TM10P1-88P carries a Last Buy lifecycle status from Hirose. This means the manufacturer has announced end-of-life — remaining stock is finite and the part is not in ongoing production.
Termination is IDC — insulation displacement contacts pierce the jacket of 26 AWG stranded round cable in a single press operation. The 0.886" (22.50 mm) overall length includes the cable entry strain relief area inside the housing.
Mating Interface and Compatibility
The unshielded housing means it pairs with unshielded jacks; for shielded applications a different TM-P series variant with a metal shell would be required. The translucent clear body lets a technician verify the latch engagement visually — the latch tab clicks into the jack cutout and the housing colour shows the lock is home.
