Got this because we were redoing our internet and adding a few more rooms to hardwire some cameras. This is a good tool if the only thing you want to do is attach your modular rj45 and rj11 jacks. IT works great for that you can see what your doing and it holds it nice and tight.. But then you also need a wire cutter and stripper we have these wire strippers Store SKU #547005. also bought some 2 port wall plates Store SKU #595177 and thankfully that job is done

I think this tool is brilliant. With the extended blade and LED lights it eliminates some issues when working in dark, crowded panels. It's a little larger than my previous tool and I find the larger, more rounded handle to be more comfortable to use. I also like the clear labels on the controls.
The blades are high quality. Batteries are included, as is a limited lifetime warranty.

A beast of a crimper. When you insert your jack and wire for crimping, it has an insanely great bite! It holds the jack very firmly, yet lets go as if you were unplugging it from a wall when done. The ratcheting mechanism works precisely and makes with ease. It will automatically release the ratcheting mechanism when the crimp is complete or you may easily rotate the release knob at any position in the crimp. The feel and strength of the crimper is outstanding. The precision is spot on! You can install a jack on the end of a cable in a matter of minutes with the available accessories of a stripper and punchdown tool by Milwaukee.

The crimper is simple and easy to use. Designed for R11 & R45 connectors, once you get the wires stripped and inserted into the appropriate connector opening, just squeeze until it sets the pins in the connector. The insulated grip, while plastic, is comfortable in my hand and makes it easy to squeeze when I’m crimping the connector. It is very well made, heavy duty crimper. I recommend this.

I needed a new punch down tool and decided to purchase this one because of the LED light and the extended reach blade. There have been many times I’ve wished the blade was longer than the standard one that came with my other tool so now that I see Milwaukee has come out with one I decided to go ahead and get it and I’m glad I did. Now that the tool is not so close to the work and it has a light to help illuminate the area. It works like my other one. You can set the impact for low or high. I’ve found that low works for everything I’m doing. If you’re in need of a new one I highly recommend this one.

As I am a user of all tools Milwaukee, both hand and power tools. I am impressed with the quality and comfort of the crimper. It handles well as at times I need to do a hundred or more RJ45 ends at a switch in a data room environment. The handles to this tool are padded just enough for a comfortable grip but still takes the pressure when driving home the task of attachment to CAT 5/6 data cables.
There are many brands and types of these crimpers on the market and I rate the Milwaukee amongst the top three in my toolbox, but the Milwaukee is the most comfortable to work with especially in a repetitive environment. This tool does not have a built in stripper as some other brands have, a small sacrifice to pay for the quality of this product.
At times I've had to purchase other brands and types getting stuck with low quality crimper that I just need for a quick job. At some locations the local retail outlet or hardware store doesn't carry much of a selection. Most of them end up in recycling by the end of the day.
You get what you pay for!

These are great crimpers. I would have to say the best part of these crimpers is the comfortable handles. The crimper has two RJ options: 6 and 8. The most common RJ out there is 8. However, there are a few 6 and occasional 4. I did not try it on a 4. The crimper makes a positive crimp and connections that are tight. the ratcheting feature allows you to slowly crimp the wire into the connector to make sure you are getting a good connection.

Very nice crimper. These are never cheap but when you get a nice one you hold on to it for years/decades. This is one you will want to hold onto.
What I like:
• High quality steel mechanisms and built to last with equal and balanced pressure.
• Hard plastic grips with grooves. Easy to hold with above average ergonomics.
• You don’t need heavy pressure to finish the crimp and only one squeeze gets the job done.
• Good visibility while using.
• Most important part is that it works and it works well. I had zero issues with any of my connectors.
What I don’t like:
• The price is higher than your normal crimper but this is also the nicest, most accurate crimper I’ve used so you will need to consider your budget and needs.
I’m a fan of these for the reasons above. It’s a nice addition to the tool collection. I fully recommend.

Well-built, tough, and accurate punch tool from Milwaukee.
What I like:
• Good brand that stands behind its tools.
• The built in light (2 LED) works well and most importantly hits the target.
• The blades stay in place once you set them in.
• Good grip on the handle. It’s a hard plastic but it has some grooves for grip.
• The hi/low setting works nicely. The pressure is accurate.
What I don’t like:
• Some on board storage would be nice for a blade or two.
• The price is a touch on the high side but this punch tool will likely live on for decades.
Overall, an above average punch tool and one of the nicer punch tools I’ve used. It held up to the paces I put it through. This is a good product. I recommend.

Ratcheting feature ensures this will last a long time. I compared this ratcheting modular crimper to a non-ratcheting variety and found this one to be much more solid, with longer-lasting components and a better feel. Non-ratcheting crimpers suffer from compression fatigue: after a number of good crimps, they lose their ability to return to normal, and quit making solid connections on your phone or ethernet connectors. The ratchet mechanism, along with high-quality dies, ensures that the crimper can ratchet to however much pressure it needs, then release that pressure when the crimp is complete.
This crimper is for non-pass through wire ends, but you may also consider a pass-through wire crimper. Home Depot sells both kinds of tools, and both kinds of connectors. This one, the non-pass through type, is by far more common. The pass-through type lets the 4, 6 or 8 wires pass all the way through the jack, then both crimps the jack and trims the wires. I personnally like the pass-through type because it serves as a final check that I have the color-coding in the proper order. Sometimes, a wire pair can cross inside the jack. As a 51-year old, my eyesight isn’t what it used to be. The usability difference is small, though, and Non-pass through types like this are easy enough to use with a pair of reading glasses for final inspection. You can’t beat the feel and rugged durability of this Milwaukee ratcheting modular crimper. It’s more expensive than alternatives, but worth it if you’re doing RJ11 and RJ45 installations on more than one job.
I’m impressed and will recommend this to friends.
