TRUE CABLE 90 Degree RJ45 Keystone Jack Termination Tool, Cat5e/Cat6/Cat6A UTP Ethernet Cable EZ Termination Punch Down for trueCABLE Unshielded Keystone Jacks

I'm impressed by this thing. Really does a nice job making solid keystone connectors. You do have to use it with TrueCable keystones, but I believe these are high quality and I don't mind paying the price. I've made about 3 dozen keystones and none has failed me (unless I wasn't paying attention and inserted wires in the incorrect order -- shame on me). In my opinion it is a quality tool worth the money and TrueCable keystones are well labeled so unless youi're a dummy (ahem, present company excepted) you'll get great results.

Works great on trimming wire on Keystone Jacks. TrueCable tools are good.

Looks like a great termination tool however you need to have truecable jacks. The tool will not fit other brands of jacks. I did not have the correct brand jacks so I can't say how well it worked or not worked.

Pay no attention to reviewers complaining of problems with other keystones. All tools of this type require precision fit with a specific brand of keystone, for this tool TrueCABLE. Pictures attached will show why perfect fit to the keystone is needed. The trueTERM tool works perfectly every time to instantly seat all eight wires in the keystone’s IDC connectors and cut off the wire ends flush with the keystone block in one stoke. I have done dozens of keystone terminations with no problems. Manually arranging the wires into the keystone block is required before inserting the keystone into the termination tool, but after that the termination process is quick. Highly recommended if you need to do a significant number of keystone terminations. I would also mention that TrueCABLE keystones are excellent. All are component rated, ANSI/TIA 568 2.D Certified, UL Listed, TAA compliant, ETL Verified, RoHS-2 compliant. Proper termination technique with quality certified keystones is important for those links you want to achieve performance up to 10Gb. Because of the need to use a known quality keystone, a termination tool that is brand-specific is not a problem.

These are high quality tools that get the job done.

Unfortunately it doesn't work for my project because I already have my own keystones and they don't work with this brand, the tool looks like it feels very good quality but I think they should buy the tool and the keystones of the same brand is my council

3.75 on a scale of 5. Tool works for sure and gets the job done but it was way too expensive. I'm sure True Cable has a 90% + margin on this tool.

This item is easy to use. It's very smooth. Calibrated great! If you're gonna get a keystone punch, you can't go wrong with this one. I don't know if it will crimp other brands.
