Here's what I have found handy around the house:

  • Diagonal cutters
  • Punch Down tool
  • Cable Tester. Though, they do have a version that also has a tone generator.
  • I just got this RJ45 crimper but I am not sure that I like the pass through plugs. Hard to keep the wires in order when putting them into the plug. I still have my old RJ45/RJ11 crimper as a fallback.
  • Stripping tool. I use this to remove the cable jackets, but it also comes in handy for terminating coax cables.

    I think the odds of me crimping RJ11/RJ12 are pretty slim, so I don't worry about that ability.

Earlier this year I got myself the Ideal 30-495 FT-45 Feed-Thru Mod Plug crimp tool. Such a time saver.

As an added bonus it fits perfectly in the slot for the punch-down tool in my Fluke Pro-Tool kit (I usually know which I'll need before going up the ladder)
