I was just gifted with an IBM 3101-12 ASCII terminal that happens to be missing the fuse and fuse holder. Unlike a lot of 1960s and 1970s gear, it's not round. It's square. Is this a standard IBM thing from the 70s/80s? Anyone know where I could get one? It seems to snap in and probably fell out at some point under its previous owner.

Also, I found only a little info on it from Googling. Later IBM ASCII terminals emulated ANSI command or Wyse-50 or something. I couldn't find anything on the 3101. Is it a glass TTY or does it respond to any cursor positioning, etc. commands?

Thanks for any tips and info. Worst case, I can bodge in a fuse on the inside, but if I can find a replacement holder, I'd like that more.

There aren't too many US made square panel mount fuse holders. It sounds like it might be a Littelfuse 348 series.
