Re: Good RJ45 crimping tool
I have found a unit from Tessco that has been real easy. I thought my Ideal telemaster was sweet, but this thing is even smoother. Crimps great, easy on the hands. It also has the blades on the end to cut off the wires for those rj45's that you pass the wires all the way through. We use the regular RJ-45's that are universal for round cables. Since we are rebuilding two sites, I also ordered a set of crimpers and ends for STP from Best-Tronics. Not sure how these will work out just yet as they have not come in.
I'll find the model number when I roll into work tomorrow and post it here.

While this model has an adjuster on the ratchet, the die is precision ground, making it impossible to over-crimp. I cannot for the life of me remember what brand I had problems with and had to return. |
