VCELINK RJ45 Connector Toolless, Gold Plated Tool Free Cat 7 Connector, Shielded Ethernet Plug for Cat6A/Cat7 Ethernet Cable, Support POE, Up to 10 Gbps, Easy to Use, 2 Pack

Use to repair a simrad marine radar cable, was easy, better than remove and replace the whole cable 👍🏻

Easy to install on the bare wire

These work as intended, but the instructions could be a bit better. I had to watch a YouTube video on how to install. I recommend using the T568B standard on all DIY cables and keep it consistent across your home network.

A nice item to have if you're doing fieldwork as a tech and need a quick fix. I like the metal construction and build quality, and the assembly of the cables is easier than others.. Still prefer keystone jack and plate installs, but this works OK if install cleanliness isn't an issue. I always use TIA-B for my ethernet jacks, be sure to use the same on both sides (though most computers and switches now auto-crossover if needed).

I found it a lot more difficult to set up than a conventional connector. But definitely felt more secure once done.

It's a great tool for quickly repairing a cable end (however there is a small learning curve), though it makes for a huge cable end. But for a tool-less repair end, it works fantastic. It's a good piece of equipment to use on cables that you know will be taking a beating and will need to be replaced. The strain relief is pretty solid and robust too. It does make it easy to spot which cable was repaired with this or built, since it literally sticks out like a sore thumb with a rack.
