RJ45 Crimp Tool Pass Through Kit Ethernet Crimper Cat5 Cat5e Cat6 Crimping Tool for RJ11/12 6P/8P with Network Lan Cable Tester, 50PCS CAT6 Connectors, 50PCS Boots, Mini Cable Stripper

This amazing tool helped me when I couldn't find anyone in the area to terminate Ethernet cables. This little kit came with everything you need to do it yourself. The instructions are clear and it was easy, even though I had never done it before. If you're new to this, like I was, grab an old cable and practice on it. Tester worked great also.

Works as described! Easy to use and comes with everything you need!

First time doing Ethernet cables; no prior experience or training here. It was easy. Tips for first timers: 1. The end pieces it comes with are "push through", which means you're supposed to push the arranged wires through the clear clips a bit so you can easily see they went through in the right order. The crimping tool cut the wires perfectly flush. I tried to make them perfectly flush before crimping; don't waste your time: the tool does it right. 2. The direction the clip faces matters. I did mine all backwards first. Do one, test it and make sure it works, then do the others. It comes with a bunch of end things (don't know what they're called, tips, clips, wire protector rubber bits) so if you mess up, it's not problem, you've got plenty. It came with way more than I realized. I tossed it in my "box of random wires" and I'm pretty sure it will last a lifetime. Doesn't feel cheap or flimsy at all to me.

I bought this kit to convert my Cat 5e phone lines into ethernet. I figured that I would put RJ45 passthrough connectors on each end and forgo keystone jacks. Well, I learned that was not a good idea after purchasing this toolkit. Overall, this toolkit is a great value for MOST of the items. The connectors and covers are good quality, the tester works as expected, the wire cutter is sharp, and the stripper/punchdown is the MVP of the group. The real loser is the crimper itself, which is why most people buy this kit to begin with. It looks like every other crimper sold on Amazon, but doesn't function correctly (as least mine doesn't). The stripper part on the tool is I'm guessing for Cat 6 cables as it too big for my Cat 5e. The cutter on it works, but the pliers given work better. The crimp part is where this thing falls flat. It seems to work just fine until you actually test out your ethernet cables. The connectors either don't pass data fully or they do and then they don't. I tested this over and over and came to the conclusion that the crimp tool is not crimping uniformly across the connector when pushed down. The gold contacts have markings afterwards where the brown wire connector is more scarred than the orange/white at the beginning. This tells me it is pushing down more on the one end than the other. It seemed that the #8 wire was always randomly working/not working on the tester. I would sometimes get 1Gbps, 100Mpbs, and sometimes it would keep disconnecting. I know it must be the crimp tool as I converted one end to a keystone jack and I immediately saw improvement. I bought a patch panel to use in my media cabinet for the other ends and voila my cable problems are over. Yes, I had the wires in the connectors correctly and everything. This tool just does not crimp the connections correctly with even pressure across the connector (even if it look perfect afterwards). I'm not sure if the gold contacts are being marked too much or not pushed down enough. If you are buying this for the crimp tool, then you may get a faulty one like I did. The other items seems to work great and are worth the package alone (especially the cheap yellow stripper / punchdown tool). I ended up keeping this kit for the other items, but will trash the crimp tool itself. Of course if you want to return one item, you have to return the entire kit and risk getting something else broken. Take your chances on this kit, but don't expect everything to work.

Really useful for when you’re installing ethernet at home, or just making an RJ45 cable. The RJ45 connectors it includes are pass-through, so crimping is easy and not a pain. The cut/crimp also comes out nice and perfect, haven’t made any major errors yet. It also includes other useful tools like a cable cutter, and a wire tester (although I haven’t used it yet since I lack the batteries it needs).

Great quality tool with the best price out there.. never used the tester, because I already have a Klein one. I bought the package deal cause it was only like 3 dollars more and came with RJ45 ends..

I'm just a homeowner and only need to make a few long cables. But I only got about 4 reliable crimps from this tool on direct bury CAT6. The cable would pass connectivity tests, but wouldn't get a link light from the networking gear. Redid several times and but would have problems more often than not if I flexed the connector. Bought a Klein and haven't had a bad crimp yet. For what it's worth, the ends and connectivity tester work fine, but the tester will only test basic electrical connectivity which is not enough to ensure full data rate.

This tool works as described and has all of what you need. I couldn't be happier.

Super

La pinza è più compatta rispetto alla tradizionale. Funziona. Batteria del tester non inclusa.

It's a good tool. It was easy to use for a complet novice. Home made internet cable works.
