A long time ago I used cheap non ratcheting crimpers and ruined a number
ports on a patch panel because I didn't completely squeeze the grips.

One of my installers says that if they don't ratchet, they're no
good. I've been using the cheap Monoprice crimpers without a problem.
I think good quality ends are more important. It's been a couple
years since I've bought ends though. (I bought a bunch)

What crimpers are connectors are en vogue these days. As tech-proof
as possible. We seem to go through phases where we end up with a lot
of ethernet cable related performance issues / service calls.

I would want more than that for that kind of price.
I would want to be able to leave the connectors and cable in the
room; walk out, and walk back in a few minutes later with the
ends all crimped with heat shrink, and Velcro ties holding the
new cables in a nice, neat loop.

Just came across these. For that price I better be able to just
shove a bare Cat5 in one side, and have a heat shrinked end come
out the other. Or is there something else super special about
these crimpers.
