Review: Ease and consistency - Needed a new crimper after my old one started to miss pins. Thought I'd give the passthrough crimpers a go. They work really well, less trimming and more consistent terminations since you can push the pairs in to the depth you want. Only thing I wish it had is a standard crimp for those times you run out of the passthrough ends or are in a pinch and only have regular rj45 connectors. You can sort of crimp the non-passthroughs, but you have to really finesse it. The cable tester is nothing fancy, but it works as you'd expect. Better to have one than none at all.
Review: Great price for the combo - Just the crimping tool at Home Depot alone is more expensive than the combo here. This was my first time making Ethernet cable and let me tell you the included pass through connectors make it certain you get the wire done correctly. I wish the included tester could test each wire in the Ethernet cable separately but the price would be more. The tester is one of the best I’ve used and buying this combo was a great purchase. Would absolutely recommend 👍🏽

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work to crimp cat6a wire?**
A: According to the manufacturer's website it works on cat6a. “Klein Tools Compact Data Cable Crimper is a premium, long-lasting tool for CAT3, CAT5e and CAT6/6A cable using Klein RJ45 Pass-Thru™ connectors.”

**Q: can this crimper use non Klein connectors**
A: it uses connectors with holes at the end so that it can trim the wires off after pushing them all the way though to the shield. It works great!

The best part of this process is that after trimming the shield, it does not matter how long your wires are. Once the crimper is activated, the wires get trimmed at the outside edge of the connector. This provides a reliable and secure connection every time.

**Q: Mine didn’t come in original package but instead each item was bubble wrapped and the connectors were in a zip lock. Is that normal?**
A: Mine just arrived, says shipped and sold by Amazon, and came in the storage bag with each piece wrapped in bubble wrap as well. No real original packaging aside from the manual/pamphlet for the tester included in the bubble wrap with that one.

**Q: How long of a cable can the tester handle**
A: I know I have used it on 100' length. the tester is really easy to use. It will tell the result of the cable and not go through a test of all wires like some you need to watch. Good, miss-wire, open and short. It shows the result very quickly and accurately. The profile of the unit is also nice and small, working with a push of one button for on/off.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pricey but appears to be good quality. Lacks one essential.
*by D***Y on May 20, 2024*

Like: This uses Pass-thru wires, extend thru the RJ45 connector and get cut at crimp time. Much easier than the insert and pray style connectors. Like: Connectors are good quality. Dislike: Would have liked some rubber boots thrown into the kit. Dislike Seriously! : There is no cable wire stripper. Must purchase as a separate item. How costly to the CFO's bonus would it be to throw that into the kit. It's plastic and a blade. C'mon Klein. Would I buy again? Might check out some cheaper alternatives that give more in the kit, but I was very pleased with the connections and ability to test after making it. The tester is great.
