Pros & Cons

Pros

Quick-crimp connector makes connector assembly much easier and less prone to mis-wiring. Great tool for creating cat6 patch cables.

Extremely happy with the product. Very durable. This tool is very sturdy and should last forever. This unit is worth the premium over the non heavy duty units.

It crimps really well. The cutter and crimper are great. Smooth ratchet mechanism allows for exact crimping pressure.

Cons

Quality

I have installed 18 of the 24 connectors that shipped with the tool and i am 100 satisfied

Probably overkill for someone like me who just uses it to make cables a couple times a year but very good quality

The product worked exactly as described didnt have any issues with using the tool also comes with a bunch of rj45s

Shipping

First one not so much but the learning curve was fast

Keeping the wires lined up its harder to push into the crimper but works better

Competitiveness

I like the clean look of the wires and love that it has a cat6 sheild stripper built in

We had to make 60 cat6 patch cables for our rd lab new building didnt have any issues with it

Im new in networking stuff and i hated using the standard crimper
