CableCreation Cat6 RJ45 Connectors, 100-PACK Cat6 RJ45 Ends, Ethernet Cable Crimp Connectors UTP Network Plug for Solid Wire and Standard Cable, Transparent

Fantastic RJ45 Ends. I really enjoy these ones, and they are designed well. I've done a LOT of ethernet cable crimping. I use all kinds of wire, but my typical go-to is really just full copper Southwire Riser Cat6 cables (in-wall certified, essentially for production homes). So anyway, I've done it multiple ways in the past, where I separate my wires and slide them through a sled, clip the end of the sled, then pop the sled into an RJ45 end and it clicks in. I used to rely on that, but I guess once you get used to cutting the wires that just feels like an extra step now. But, I will say, some RJ45 ends just feel "tighter" and harder to line-up the cables right, like they are so tight that unless you are absolutely flawless, you are going to get one of the wires to bend and snag and even though it looks like they all went in, one of them didn't and you end up with a failed connection. Well, not these. These went in so smooth. These are, so far, the easiest single end connectors I've used sliding the wires into right before crimping it. I am a believer now in this brand. Honestly, I just enjoy making ethernet cables. I watch netflix and while my wife crochets, I'm crimping 10ft ethernet cables. I think I found my new go-to brand. I used to buy the Klein or Ideal brands from like Home Depot, as they are good as well, but I would spend 40 bucks on a 100 pack. I bought this because of the good price and I just wanted to see for myself, and holy crap, I feel like an idiot paying this price for so long when a great product like this exists at such a better price. Ideal was and still is a fantastic brand, but we are talking 1/3 the price here. Do yourself a favor, buy a small 50 pack or so at first, see if you like em. If you do, get the 100 pack. Once I burn through this 50 in no time I am definitely dropping for a 100 pack. I have not personally had the issue with them not "clicking" properly, as I have seen other reviewers state. We'll see... I have also used about 30 ends so far and have had only 1 failure on my tester., which honestly was probably my fault.

Glad these are on the market. I hate the pass through ones, and these work great for thicker cat6a. I will say getting used to the staggered wiring was a bit tough, but it's needed to fit larger gauge ethernet. The teeth work for both stranded and solid core wire, so it works for repairing or making patch cables as well as structure cables. Not a huge fan of the packaging, they come in a flat tray, and i would prefer a jar or just a zip-lock bag.

Great connectors! It took me a few failures to eliminate the user error. I learned to leave the wire ends long enough to reach all the way in, cut them perfectly the same length, and align them to stay in the right order. Then with a little finesse, they would slide right into the correct holes and crimping made great connections.

I purchased the version without the sled. I'm coming from connectors that had the sled. Here are my thoughts: - Having a sled helps to avoid bad crimps - Not dealing with a sled is much less fiddly - The cable must be prepped properly to minimize errors - After ordering each wire, press down with finger or object and slide toward jacket to fix each wires into position. After a few passes, the wires should stay in order without holding - Trim so 1.3cm of wire exposed. Make extra certain the cut is level with these connectors - While crimping, push the cable into the connector. I've found that with my cable, the individual cables can recede upon crimping Note that I'm using insulated cat 6, which I think is easier with these connectors, as it doesn't have the plastic core. The key is being able to reliably order the cables while keeping the length to ~1.3cm without mangling the jacket, else the crimp won't hold well. Would recommend if you can streamline your process and avoid bad crimps. Would buy again to avoid fiddling with sleds. EDIT: Used these with some chonkier cat-6 that has a plastic core. Tips: - Pull each wire pair away from others to free up space around plastic core - Pull plastic core so that it stretches and snip at base of cable jacket; It should recede to be a few mm below the jacket so that it doesn't get in the way when ordering the wires - Now, order the wires, pushing down between a surface and your finger, applying and sliding pressure back toward the jacket to fix wires in place - Trim, insert, crimp It wound up being easier than the insulated cat6, so long as you get that dang plastic race out of the way.

Good quality!

Most end users this may not apply to, but to the extreme user this may. I terminated mutltiple drops in a channel config (tip to tip connectors), and a few with tips on the station side and a quality patch panel on the distribution side. These were attached to commscope cat 6 plenum rated wire. Each of these drops (cables) were tested using a Fluke Networks Lvl III Cable Analyzer. Using the industry standard of near end cross talk (next) as a point of measurement for termination quality these tested quite well. The lowest I got was 11.8 db margin with most in the range of 17-18 db. These mod tips perform quite well. Should be noted a few had to be redone to achieve these numbers, but this is a installer issue. Stepped on a few and beat on a few to see if they would shatter or deform easily. These mod tips didn't even skip a heartbeat. Pros: Exceptional value for price. Test and perform exceptionally well. Resealable pack that can survive a tool bag. Gold plated conductors. Proper dimensions, no sloppy fit to jack. Cons: I call it snap plastic that everyone uses to make mod tips. This causes the clips to break off very easily. Note, I did NOT have any that did. But after crimping I had to pull the clip backwards to give it memory again. Each time worried the clip would snap off. Each cable was done with a strain boot to protect the termination. This is NOT per se a bad mark on the manufacturer, just a general market item. There are a few out there that use a significantly different plastic formula. But these are rare and hard to find. Note, I rate all mod tips that do not have enhanced clips the same, but again these are rare and hard to find. It is just a honest opinion. The "snap" plastic is the industry standard, and in no way should reflect this brand name or manufacturer.
