Re: RJ-45 crimping tool

[brobborb]

Car, not only that, but there's this plastic thing that runs through the whole cable that separates the twisted pairs into 4 compartments ( picture a circle with a vertical line and a horizontal line intersecting in the center).  It makes it hard to line up the wires cos the thing is in the way!

  One caveat:  The top of the line, cat 6 cables are very hard to work
  with.  The pairs are usually duplexed (like zip cord) and it is challenging
  to break them apart.  I am sure that there is a tool for this, but I
  haven't seen one, yet.

  The top Belden cable has a dumbbell shaped cross-section that is even more
  of a pita to deal with.
