You are assembling custom RJ-45 Ethernet cables. Which tool would you use to attach the Ethernet connectors to the ends of the CAT5e cable?
Punchdown tool
Crimper
Wire stripper
Cable tester
The correct tool for attaching Ethernet connectors to the ends of a CAT5e cable is a crimper. Crimpers are designed to apply uniform pressure on connector ends to securely affix them to cables. They are distinct from tools like wire strippers, which remove insulation, or punchdown tools, which are used for inserting wires into punchdown blocks. Although the cable tester is part of the cable-making process, it is not used for attaching connectors but rather for verifying the quality of the cable after crimping.
