Not straight stamp

Strange "Hybrid" stamp. As a result I haven't used it, I can't say anything bad about it. It looks and feels very sturdy, seems to be of decent quality.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Works well, easy to set up.

They are about as I expected, not the easiest of installs but not bad considering. The look and fit are decent and they stay in place well so it's worth it for me.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Plastic. You need a screwdriver and have to pry and pull a lot. However, the lid no longer closes completely tightly when open, since the small tabs that hold

Good product but poor quality control

I have purchased five double port boxes that are rated Category 6. They are all plastic but strong, I used a 110 punch and it worked fine. The first of the five had a broken connection on one of the signal lines between the RJ45 and the punch unit, which turned out to be a tiny break in the copper trace on its internal circuit board. A short jump over the breaking point put everything back in order. I also noticed where the stamping blocks are soldered to the board, half the pads, 4 out of 8…
