Clip on rj45 connector

[hans gruber]

I have a couple of clip on rj45 connectors I used to make an ethernet cable. I reused them from a cable made by a bt engineer several years ago. I would like some more but can't seem to find them anywhere. All I can find is the sort you use a tool to crimp on to the cable.

Does anyone know where to get this sort of connector? Is there some sort of disadvantage compared to the crimp on version?

Might be worth posting a picture of the ones you have to try and help us track them down.

The only crimpless ones I've seen have been crazy expensive.

They're at work so will snap a pic next time I'm in. I've searched high and low in the past but never found them. I want to install some cctv cameras and these seem an easy way to make cables, as I already have a reel of cat5. I'm not sure how easy the crimp versions are. Thu it may just be cheaper to but ready made cables. Plus the cameras are going to be 8mp hikvision so I'm not sure if I need cat 6?

Here are the pictures I promised.
