Questions & Answers

Is there a way to replace the parts on this?

Yes, this unit comes with three replacement blades. B1- 66/110 Cut-Out 66/110 Cut-Out 66/110 Cut-Out 66/110 Only, B2- 11 Cut/Punch Reversible and B3- 66 Cut/Punch reversible.

Is it possible to use this on a cat6 cable that has not been shielded?

This is merely a tool for punching down. It can theoretically be used with any network cable. Shielded cable simply adds shielding to the cable or individual pairs, and depending on your termination/connector, it can be punched down or wrapped.

There are no issues in this area

5/5

This is not the tool for you if you prefer a punchdown tool with pushdown feedback and an audible click. It doesn't press into the handle or make any noise, but it does exactly what it's supposed to do and does it well.

It's nice, but it's not a tool that can make an impact

4/5

The tool accomplishes the task at hand by punching wires into keystones and patch panels. However, keep in mind that this is a push-down tool, not an impact tool. If the word "impact" wasn't in the tool description, I would give it five stars.

It's a little small; I was expecting it to be a little bigger, but it fits in my palm

Good for the most part

4/5

It's very portable and small. However, this does not punch down like normal punchdowns; instead, it is one solid piece, so you must rely on guesswork when punching down.
