I’m in need of a cable crimper and some other network tools like a tone gen/probe, cable snipper/stripper, and I’ll probably also get a cable tester, for a couple of jobs I’ll be doing soon
So, I’m assembling a basic toolkit to install the physical network parts, and I’m asking here for recommendations on mid and high quality tools so I can decide on what to get
As one should do with tools, I’m ready to spend a buck (or euro, in this case) to get good and durable stuff, but these days looking for reviews online is a marketing shitshow, so I thought I’d come here to look for recommendations and try to find someone with actual practical knowledge and experience
Any advice is welcome!
Pass throughs cost a little more, but the time you save is 100% worth it. When you feed the wires into the head they come out the front so you can check the color code and the crimper trims them perfectly to length. So much easier than trying to trim the wires to the perfect length and peaking through the head to see if they lined up right.
