Everest Media Solutions easyJACK 90° Angled Speed Termination Tool - with 20 Pack CAT6/5e 90° Angled Keystone Jack in White - Extra Connectors

I have punched down a lot of network cables manually and this has been by far the easiest tool to use to terminate network cables and it's solid. It still requires the same work, but in the end it punches all 8 wires at once. From experience, anytime I have ever punched down keystone jacks manually, if you did so much as breathing on it the wrong way, a wire comes loose. The same after testing and simply pushing it back into the wall. With this tool, I can push, twist, pull it by the wire, pop it into a quick port, remove it, pop it again and it has not once came loose. Since I started using this tool, they have tested good 100% of the time. I ended up wiring one wrong and I can confirm that the wires are punched down solid and it was very difficult to pull the wires from the jack. I thought I was going to have to give up and toss it. Super solid. I would definitely recommend this tool. A bit of advice to anyone purchasing this tool. Do not use network cable with the super thin pairs of wires. Make sure you spend a little more or else this may not be the right termination tool for you. Also, if you are like me and you like to put the cable jacket halfway into the jack, don't do that on these. There isn't a lot of room so you crush the wires. I'm sure it would still work, but it will most likely cause problems down the road. One last item is that the plastic cover you pop onto the jack, don't freak out because it is NOT designed to be fully seated onto the jack. I sat there for about 10 minutes trying to figure it out why it wasn't seated down all the way. I am not personally a fan of this design, but it still works. CON: They designed this in a way that requires you to purchase their proprietary keystone jacks if you want to continue using this tool. It's not a universal fit to match basically every other keystone jacks out there. I tried other keystone jacks I had laying around and can confirm this. I don't have every keystone jack ever made so I can't say this is correct 100% across the board, but I'm 99.9% sure this is the case.

Easy to use, includes lots of keystone jacks, and great value (especially comparing to some other, very expensive keystone kits). This is much easier to use than pass-through jacks and crimps very quickly. None of my crimps have any signal issues - and I have a couple of my cables doing 2.5 gigabit.

I really enjoy this item and their connectors. It makes it very easy to punch down keystones with one crimp. I terminated approximately 42 keystones with only two issues which makes for about a 95% accuracy. I really do not know why two of the connections we're not good. It did seem I needed to pull out my punch down and apply more pressure on some of the wires to make good connections. Overall I am very pleased with this crimper and keystones. The colors on the keystones are very easy to see and not difficult to distinguish the colors. The boxes the keystones come in make it very easy for the keystones to fall out after future use. It would be nice if they packaged them in ziploc style plastic bags to keep all the pieces together.

Excellent tool to work with

Works perfectly
