Review on High-Quality UL Listed in-Wall Rated Cat6 Bulk Cable - 1000 Feet, Black by Chris Endricko

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Combination of Klein Tools Crimper, ITBEBE Plugs and Cables 23AWG Cat6 Cable

Despite the obvious standardization with RJ45 plugs and Cat5/6/7 cables, I noticed that many reviews mention a specific combination of tools/cables / Connectors that didn't work so I'll add my experience to hopefully make it easier for others. 23 AWG Cables - B07G2Q1KSDC Cables are UL Listed In-Wall Rating (cm) Cat 6 Bare Copper, Cat6 Bulk (1000ft Cat6 Ethernet Cables) - B0049L24TQ They all worked together with no issues. I haven't crimped Ethernet cables for a long time and have found the pass-through connectors/crimps easy to use. A slight learning curve and a small added value to smooth individual strands particularly well and wide. Also, it was easy to mistakenly not insert the socket deep enough into the crimping tool that it wouldn't work. For those connectors at least, I had to somehow put them in there to make sure they worked. If I didn't, it wouldn't crimp properly or trim excess wires, but with an extra push it worked every time. I also received a Klein Tools VDV501-823 cable tester, VDV Scout Pro - B00M2DDO0Q, to check, but this is most likely not the case. so much emphasis on compatibility.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Big and Bulky
