Everest easyJACK - 90° Angled Speed Termination Keystone Tool - Time Saver Network Punch Down Tool - to Be Used ONLY with Everest 90° Angled RJ45 Cat5e, Cat6a and Cat6 Keystone Jacks (B087N7QQD2)

No puedo creer tanto tiempo de creer que no necesitaba esta herramienta. Total. Que tanto es hacer 8 impactos por cada conector. Lo que primero me llamó la atención es lo delgado del cuerpo, se acomodan en las placas para 6 conectores. Y la rapidez en lo que se preparan los conectores es increible.

I mean this tool is kind of a waste using a specific brand of keystone. . . But it works, is very fast, reliable and easy. I imagine if you were using this tool for regular installs of dozens or hundreds of keystones it would add up spending 1.5x more on connectors vs builder grade ones. But for a home install you will not even notice. Even if you are doing hundreds. . . your time and the low failure rate because it is so easy will still probably make it worth it. As a home user. . . I didn't need this tool. Let's be honest it will be yet another specialty tool in my garage that will collect dust for 10 years until a family member or friend needs help with a project, and I will pull out just the right tool for the job and save the day. You know. . . every white-middle-class New Balance with white socks 40+ year old man's hero fantasy. Right up there with cleaning the storm drains during a thunderstorm in your 20-year-old broken in gym shorts and getting a nod from all the neighbors, while your neighbor down the street was held up by his wife and can only look on forlorn that he missed his shot.

First off—yes, this works perfectly with VCE RJ45 CAT6 Keystone Jacks, even though the packaging only mentions Everest Media. Don’t worry—it’s fully compatible. This was my first time terminating keystone jacks, and I wanted something that would help me work efficiently and confidently. I was running 10 new network lines in my basement, relocating everything because I was installing a new network rack and space was too tight at the original location near the hot water tank. The keystone jack kit I bought came with a basic punch-down tool, but I didn’t fully trust it for clean, reliable terminations. That’s where the Everest easyJACK came in—and let me tell you, it’s a game changer. At around $50, this tool is great for both beginners and more experienced users. You just follow the color code, drop in the wires, and crimp. I was using 24AWG Cat6 cable, and while I had a couple of misses (probably because I didn’t press the wires all the way in), the tool overall made the process fast and frustration-free. It’s comfortable to use, feels well-built, and saved me a ton of time. Even if it costs a bit more than a cheap punch-down tool, this one feels like a buy-it-once, use-it-for-life kind of tool. Highly recommend it for anyone doing home networking projects.

Very please with buying this. One handed use, great for working on ladders and saves A LOT OF TIME. If you've ever done wiring / termination / network keystone jacks, you'll understand punching down is no longer the way to go. Go for it - get this, and get the job done FAST. One press and you're cut and terminated properly with speed!!!

Works great with the Everest jacks. Speeds up installs for sure saving a lot of time. Tool is solid, smooth, and well made. It provides quality connections.
