Professional Punch Down Tool, Krone Type IDC RJ45 RJ11 Cat5e Cat6 Network Telecom Phone Cable Socket Impact Terminal Insertion Tools

Great 2 tools that are quality for the price paid. There are many cheaper variants of this Krone tool available on Amazon and other shopping websites. I decided to take the plunge and pay a slightly higher premium for this variant due to other user reviews as it is a small upgrade on the previous one that I owned which was cheaply made, and in all fairness did not last well or was not up to the task even after a few uses. The previous one was dirt cheap which is ok if you are going to use it just a few times, but I wanted something obviously to last as I frequently do a few jobs for myself including work, friends and family. The great thing about the upgrade features on this tool are the small "T" shaped buttons on both sides that activate and open up the two additional tools that are standard on all Krone Punchdown Tools as well as a switch in the centre of the tool which is circular with lines across it that only needs to be turned a 1/4 of a turn that will also disable the cutting feature when crimping wires etc. This version has a small metal frame at the bottom of the tool that makes it feel so much more sturdier when using, as well as acting as a lock for the punching down element. The cutters and snippers also work very well compared to cheaper variants. Seriously, for the slightly higher price paid you cannot go wrong with the build quality on this variant. Included in the price is also a wire cutting and stripping tool which is a handy addition to your toolkit, which itself is also of a higher build quality over identical but cheaper versions in the marketplace. The only decent thing that I kept from my old tool was the two additional tools that I took apart from the broken one and used a plastic tie to use them as separate handheld spares that are handy when doing up or taking apart sockets and separating wires. I have included various photos of this tool with its functionality features open. Overall, I am happy with the purchase made and would definitely recommend this version over others that are cheaper and have an inferior build quality. As they say "pay cheap, pay twice/double in the long run".

Nothing to dislike, excellent quality and price.

Decent quality, made wiring up keystone jacks very easy and fast. I only wired up 6, so no idea how it would hold up long term, but seems pretty well made for the price.

Aveson’s version of a standard IDC punch-down tool works almost exactly the same as those I used in the past. I leave the snip setting on “cut” as there is nothing worse than odd short ends cluttering up the array. In the distant past one of the tools we used had a gripper that held on to the stray snipped bit, this one doesn’t but it’s OK for small fields of IDC terminals. The Yellow wire-stripper is also effective on the usual cable jackets, but don’t even begin to think about using it as a punch-down.

I had a cheaper tool that was always hit and miss if it would work or not. This one was perfect, no issues at all. Comes with a separate tool for stripping the sheath from the cable which also worked great.

Great buy and was cheap. I had to install a wired Cat6 RG45 connector downstairs so I can extend wired connection from my router all the way to loft and upstairs bedroom. I had already fed the ethernet cables through and just needed this connector socket installed on the wall. I have never used a punch down tool and this was the first attempt. Watching a few online videos helped especially to understand which side points out/in. the handy tools to remove a punched down wire is useful (but i didn't have a need to use em, phew). The wire cutter was easy to use and in no time helped get rid of the cable sleeve. The edge of the wire cutter was also useful to position the tiny wires onto the connector before using the punch down tool. I have taken away one star because there were no instructions with the packaging and there was poor information on the product description. For eg. there is a round knob on the tool which after some research I understood is used to control whether/how much of the wire tips I need cut-off after the punch down motion. But adding some clear description would have helped.

It's a better quality punch down till than the one I already had. Used a lot for terminating ethernet cables into wall sockets. Good performance, good price. Very happy.

The large tool is awkward to use in some applications The yellow plastic for small areas was useless. Punch part construction the blade fell out after 3 punches , could have probably been superglued back in if it haven't fallen between floor boards If you need the plastic one .. buy a riveted device by Kenable

J'ai utilisé cet outil pour établir mes connexions de fils monobrins sur des prise RJ45 Cat6. Après avoir compris comment le positionner exactement sur le bornier (sur chaque cosse) de la prise, j'ai pu apprécier son efficacité à faire pénétrer chacun des fils dans les cosses et terminer sa course en coupant le reste des fils en trop. C'est pour cela qu'il faut faire attention à le placer dans le bon sens (mais on ne se trompe pas longtemps !) sur la cosse, car si il est inversé, il coupe le fil coté prise et pas coté extérieur, il faut positionner le bout plastifier de l'outil vers l'intérieur de la prise sur la cosse, de manière à ce que celui puisse plaquer le fil sur le fond de la prise, qu'il soit bien enfoncer dans la cosse et pour terminer qu'il puisse couper le bout de fil en surplus coté extérieur.

Sehr gutes Werkzeug zur Auflegung den Netzwerkkabel in einer Netzwerkdose. Habe 10 Dosen angeschlossen und bin wirklich sehr positiv angetan, wie einfach mit diesem Werkzeug die Kabelauflegung geht. Überstehende Leitungsenden werden genau richtig abgezwickt. Würde das Werkzeug wieder kaufen. Das Hineindrücken der Adern in Dosenanschlüsse ist mit dem Werkzeug eine Sache von Sekunden.

Las tijeras cortan poco. Pero todo bien

Comodo funzionale tutto ok

Buena punch tool para conectar cables de red a cajas de conexión, además de ayudar a la hora de pelar el cable.
