Looking for a replacement DC barrel plug to fit a BT Homehub 5A power

Measuring the external and internal diameter of my original BT HH5a
plug, it's 5.5mm x 3 mm (not sure if the internal part of the barrel is
actually a cone shape


I thought they (internally) were cylindrical but with some sort of
sprung element to help make a good contact?


someone says the old maplin L06BR with exchangeable tips included one
that fitted HH5a, which looks like it must have been the 5.5x2.5mm tip.
