1. A modular plug, comprising:
a plug main body that can be inserted into and removed from a connector;
an engaging claw configured to engage the plug main body with the connector; and
an operations lever configured to turn off engagement of the plug main body and the connector by the engaging claw;
wherein a lock turning-off member is movably coupled to the plug main body so that the lock turning-off member can be freely slid relatively thereto in inserting and removing directions;
an inclination surface of the lock turning-off member is formed in a position facing the operations lever; and
the inclination surface operates the operation lever accompanying the sliding, in the inserting direction, of the lock-turning off member so that the engagement of the engaging claw and the connector is turned off.
