Review on Complete Network/Phone Cable Testing And Crimping Kit With Pass Through CAT6 Cat5E Cat5 RJ45 Crimp Tool, RJ12 Compatibility, 50PCS CAT5 CAT5E Pass Through Connectors, And Mini Wire Stripper by John Huskisson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very Useful--and High Quality

This is a very high quality piece of kit--solidly constructed, easy to use, does the job efficiently and well. And it is a nice kit indeed from this seller: you not only get the crimping tool itself, but they throw in a package of pass-through connectors and a wire stripping tool.After watching a couple of YouTube videos to make sure I was doing it correctly, I was able to properly repair a Cat 6 cable I use to link my MacBook Pro to my iMac for transferring large folders of photographs fast as possible. And even though it was my first attempt, I was able to accomplish it quickly and stress-free with this kit. And I'm getting great data-transfer rates.And now I can repair several other cables I have that need a bit of service, including the RJ-11 plug that connects my digital back to my old Hasselblad camera--my back is quite old, and the cables for it are like hen's teeth, very expensive online/on eBay even *if* you can find them. Using this kit will save me a lot of time, money and aggravation that I've already invested trying to find a replacement cable (when I'd rather repair/re-use anyway).I'm not sure how an expert would judge this tool, but for a rank beginner like me, it works very well indeed. Highly satisfied!

Pros
  • Best invest ever
Cons
  • The kit doesn't come with enough connectors for larger projects
