-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I've got one similar to this: https://shop.primespec.com/100054c/ez-rjpro-hd-crimp-tool-platinum-tools.htm... It's meant for the kind of RJ-45 plugs where you can push the wires right through the front of the plug, to make sure you've got them in the correct order. The plugs with the open fronts cost a bit more, but you end up wasting fewer from bad crimping. The ratchet is handy too; closing the tool most of the way before the ratchet disengages is a handy way to put it in storage. Biggest beef: The wiring diagram on the shank lists the correct colours and pin numbers, but it's exactly UPSIDE-DOWN from the way the plug is inserted in the crimper. Never thought I'd be complaining about UX on a hand tool, but there you are. Although I linked to Primespec, I'd see if they're available from Sayal, who seem to have an amazing collection of tools. Primespec does differential pricing, depending on which customer you are. When I've bought stuff (cable, conduit) for one customer it's one price, when I buy for a different customer it's a different price. And if you get a vendor account with them they tell you their price list is confidential.

I want to buy RJ45 (8c8p) crimper, so that I can make ethernet cable of exact length I need. Which brand is good quality?
