A krone style punch-down tool, a good one is ?14 from Craplins (BP42)
although you can use a light duty plastic one costing a couple of quid,
which is good for ten-twenty punches.. (B&Q sell a noddy one)

Nothing to be scared of :)

I have never seen one.

Although, to be honest, It's less hassle to punch down four outlets than
it is to crimp four leads.

Hello all

I have finally decided to install some CAT5 in the house and I have a
simple question.

I would like to fit some cat 5 outlets in the wall but i do not want to
have to punch down the connections as I am only fitting 4 outlets and I
do not want to go to the bother.

Is there any product that will allow me to plug a standard RJ45 into the
back of the wall outlet.

I hope that someone understands this

Regards

Ben
