Tools and Hardware Reviews of Paladin Tools 70007 Complete Network Tool Kit
Customer Review: Not Terribly Pleased
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this kit to perform a very basic network installation.
The punchdown tool performs adequately
The wire stripper works fine (needed slight adjustment to not cut into wires)
However:
The crimper simply doesn't work. I woulden't have thought that something as simple as a crimper could not work. At first i thought it was me, so i made up the same cables a few times to no success. Then i'm like ok the ends must be defective, so i went and bought new Cat5 ends of a different brand, no dice. I then tried a different brand of cable that i had a couple dozen feet of, still no success. In desperation thinking i had gone crazy and forgotten how to crimp a cable, i borrowed a crimper from a colleague. Success every time.
Upon careful examination, it looks like the crimper is pushing the pins of the Cat5 end just a fraction of a millimeter off and the pins are missing the cable. So upon crimping, you have a perfectly dead cable.
It's disappointing when the tool that there is no workaround for in a network kit is faulty (you can use a thin screwdriver in place of the punchdown and a knife for the wire cutter/stripper)
But from the positive reviews it seems i just got a bum unit.
