RJ45 Crimp Tool Pass Through Crimper Cutter for Cat6a Cat6 Cat5 Cat5e 8P8C Modular Connector Ethernet Crimper Tool

It is smaller than I expected. But it works fine and would be good to carry in a go-bag.

Perfect crimping tool, razor blade cuts perfect the pass trough connectors. Works really well

If you watched a bunch of YT videos on how to make your own CAT cables you saw one tool consistently in videos that demonstrate the ease at which cables can actually be done, this is the one. With a supply of the pass through RJ45 plugs you can finger cramp your way through producing cables of any custom length. The easy reference color chart on the handle is a perfect addition to this tool, I used it for every single connector, easier than trying to look at your phone every time if you don't have a color printer. I was running 23AWG CAT 6A cables and its ease of use made the job easier as far as that process went, makes nice clean connections. Make sure to put your junction box weather plug and your strain relief boot on before starting wire stripping. Have good lighting when doing this other wise it leads to mistakes in the wire insertion. That is what the cable tester is for though.

Great crimpers for RJ45 jobs. If you want an all-purpose tool (e.g for RJ11 as well, etc), this isn’t it. RJ45 5&6 only. However, I only do RJ11 occasionally these days, so the trade-off is well worth this tool’s compact size. It’s very well made and has a very smooth action as well, but it’s compact size is definitely it’s best feature for me.- - The only suggestion for use is…. when initially inserting the tipped cable, be sure that the copper pairs that will be sticking out the front prior to crimping (this is for pass-through tips), are as straight as possible so they don’t get snagged. This possibly can be reduced by trying to have as little extra sticking out the front of the tips as possible, but that’s often hard to judge when trying to work quickly, and the whole purpose of pass-through tips is to avoid hassling with multiple wire trims to begin with.- - Anyways, hope this made sense. I would definitely recommend these and would buy again if needed.

Saw another review saying the product doesn’t come with extra blade. Well I can testify it does. I am able to use this with the pass through caps I bought and works like a charm. Passes the cable test each time I use this to crimp and trim the cables. Overall grade A++++++

I've used the old style crimpers for 20+ years, these are amazing. Perfect crimp every time. I love that they're smaller and they feel very solid

This is the perfect crimper for ri45’s. Has a cheat sheet for those who don’t have it memorized and for the money it works perfectly. Takes minimal effort to crimp and is fast and reliable. Good buy. Have done over 500 terminations and it’s still sharp and like new

works great, easy to use
