Pros & Cons

Pros

Cuts clean and crimps good. Makes crimping connectors a breeze. The blade is a little dull after a few hundred crimps, but it still works.

The cutter blade is connected to a plastic arm. It seems a very sturdy tool with good weight on it. This tool paired with pass through ends make the job much less of a chore.

Klein tools vdv226-005 compact modular data cable crimper, for pass-thru rj45 connectors is a good value. Tried on test cable first then repaired all my broken cables. Had to make 20 ethernet cables for my port switch and port panel. Used with klein c...  Read More

Pass-through crimpers are game changers for me. First time using the pass thru style connector. Works fine for pass-thru rj-45 connectors.

Quality


They are easy to use and retain the klein quality that my dad relied on for all the tasks he performed over the years


Perfect tool for quick easy clean install


It crimped very well the first time for every cable and provided a clear cut of the excess


I overtightened and cracked the arm when adjusting the blade that came crooked

Price


These klein crimpers are affordable and give great value for the price


Got it on sale and i’m very pleased with how well it works

Competitiveness


I found this one and klein makes a great product even though a little more expensive


It works with both klein and ideal pass through terminals


Instead bought this jodroad cat5 pass thru ends 50 and a kolsol cable tester all for less than the price of the replacement cables


Overall its a great tool the size is much better than others and it does what its supposed to do

    It does cause the fitting to jam inside causing user to really tug to get the end to release

    If youve ever tried terminating cat5 ends with traditional crimps you know just how frustrating it can be
