Any recommended Crimping tool for RJ45?

[Gimpymoo]

I seem to have lost one I had from decades ago.

Anyone recommend one which works consistently? I remember using cheaper ones back in the day and they were sometimes a nightmare.

Many thanks.

I have a spare pair I bought a few years ago but the original one is still working fine and its had a lot of usage.

I use the Ideal Networks Tool along with their pass through RJ45 plugs. Never had a bad connection.

I have a relatively cheap tool that you can find by searching for TL07304, which does me fine. If I found myself having to crimp plugs on regularly I'd probably get the Ideal feed through connectors with their crimp tool, but I'd try and avoid making up patch cables wherever possible. If I'm doing a drop for an AP or camera or whatever now I try and terminate on a keystone and use a short patch lead.
