The network cable plugs in my home needed to be replaced recently, but the old crimping tool was no longer working well. Need to find better quality ones for the job.
The choice of network crimping tools is mainly related to the RJ45 Connector you are using.
First, if you need to crimp a Non-Pass Through RJ45 Connector, most of the crimping tools on the market can meet your needs.
If you want to crimp a Pass-Through RJ45 Connector, use a crimping tool that can remove excess core wires during crimping. Please pay attention to choosing a crimping tool with a better wire-cutting effect, which can be judged by the material of the blades used. Generally speaking, SK2 blades are sufficient for cutting.
In addition, if your RJ45 Connector has a latch, purchasing a crimping tool with a latch-pressing function is recommended for a better user experience.
If you want a better user experience, it is necessary to consider your own situation when choosing a suitable crimping tool in terms of weight and size. If the crimping tool has a design that conforms to ergonomics, it will make your usage process more comfortable.
