hi.. your video was … hi.. your video was too cool.. i want too learn more from you.. anyway.. can i have your permission to use your video for school purpose.. coz i’m taking my thesis right now.. and i need your video to embed to my system.. i’m glad if you agree.. thanks.. plz reply
Erm, so I bought … Erm, so I bought all the equipment showed in this video, I even orderd that cable checker off eBay. Any idea why the checker skips the first number when checking? I even checked a factory made patch cable and it does the same with it. I know the light works because it lights up when testing a crossover cable. Any ideas?
contd 2) I finally … contd 2) I finally intentionally broke off that stop, so I could make the initial length to stripe about 2 inches. But nicking inner wire insulation still a prob.
BUT THE MAIN TIP YOU SHOWED was, order of untwist, and specifying “always start with the white-striped” wire of the pair. That makes all the difference.
I spent hours, then finally came & saw your video. really well done, at a good pace, and repetition was perfect. 5 stars!
contd: The stripper … contd: The stripper portion of the “all-in-1″ crimper created 2 huge problems for me, which were totally eliminated with your stripper. (a) it has 2 razors, one either side of opening, but nowhere near as precise as your roll-around tool, which for you made it perfect, with no internal wire skins nicked. (b) My tool’s stripper opening had a “stop” about a half inch from stripper blades. So this method expected me to do the whole wire separation and ribbon squeeze with 1/2″ length.
Great job… After … Great job… After reading a bunch of very good how-to’s, and practicing a few times, I had the hardest time completing what should be, as you’ve show, such a simple task.
Now I see why: (a) your tools are better than mine. My hardware store sold supposedly a high quality crimper to me, and I had them show me the various elements.
(b) HUGE difference: You have a wire stripping tool I’ve never seen before, and certainly wasn’t explained to me. The crimper has a built-in wire stripper.
Prices can range from $10 to $100 depending on the quality.
Ratching crimping tools are the most expensive, but for a home user you can pick up a decent quality one for $20.
Technically you … Technically you could but for all practical purposes no. My guess is you would destroy many RJ45 connectors trying and probably end up with many faulty connections too.

No your hand isn’t strong enough. All the gold connectors have to pushed heard enough to penetrate the wire.
