FAQ
The essentials depend on the cable and connection type. Coaxial work typically calls for a cable cutter, a compatible stripper, a compression or crimping tool, and suitable test equipment. Ethernet installations may require a jacket stripper, an RJ45 crimper, a punch-down tool for compatible jacks or patch panels, and a network cable tester. Cable-routing tools and labels can also help with longer runs and keeping connections organized.
Some tools support multiple cable types, but termination tools are usually connector-specific. An RJ45 crimper attaches modular Ethernet plugs, while a coaxial compression tool secures compatible coaxial compression connectors. Check the supported cable sizes, connector styles, and preparation lengths before choosing a tool.
Match the stripper to your cable type, such as RG6, RG59, or RG11, and the preparation dimensions required by the connector manufacturer. Check whether the tool uses fixed or adjustable blades and whether replacement blade cartridges are available. Correct preparation helps avoid damage to the centre conductor and shielding.
Pass-through RJ45 plugs generally need a compatible crimper that trims the protruding wires flush as it crimps. A standard modular crimper may not include this cutting function. Confirm that the tool supports the specific plug design, cable category, and conductor size you plan to use.
Not necessarily. Basic testers check continuity or wire order, while more advanced models may measure cable length, locate faults, or check Power over Ethernet. Qualification testers assess support for particular network applications. Formal certification requires a certification tester that measures against the applicable cabling standard, so choose equipment based on the job's testing requirements.
