How to use the Cat 6 'Speed Termination Tool'

[Lucanhoops]

I’ve used it, great job, speeds up terminations and never get a fail for cable not being properly punched down

On the contrary, a good mechanical connection merely requires that the wire be securely and firmly seated into the IDC. I've terminated with a non-impact tool and it still certified as CAT6 - it wasn't FUN, but it worked. So long as sufficient force is applied, it doesn't matter how you reach that force.

Thank you for this educational video,

Why is the cat 6 jacket not inside of the keystone? unless this is just concept that cable is unjacketed outside of keystone and unplated

[davinadavina]

does it do the other style too? do i have to buy your keystones?

I guess as long as you do it in one smooth steady motion you get enough friction to set up the connection. It would be interesting to look at it through a handheld microscope. I guess that's the next tool on my list.

do can all kind of brand cat5 6 keystone jack termination

Anybody know if this guy ever went to home depot and just bot some snips? Using two different tools to strip the cable and cut the string is also a waste of time.

[RandyRostie]

I don't see how this particular tool has enough force to properly terminate the cable. It needs that "snap" of the impact tool to ensure the mechanical connection.

Sorry, I do this faster without an all in one crimp. use a curved pick to separate the twists saves more time than this tool
