“ For newcomers, the pass-through (Crimper), such as the PA1562 from Tempo®, emerges as a clear favorite.”

The cable crimping industry is witnessing a significant shift with the introduction of pass-through connectors, challenging the long-standing dominance of Standard RJ45 connectors. The conventional method, using standard RJ45 connectors, necessitates a meticulous process where technicians arrange wires before inserting them into the connector. While this approach is proven for its reliability, it requires precision and considerable practice. In contrast, the Pass-Through Technology improves this process. It allows technicians to insert wires directly through the connector, offering the opportunity to visually confirm their order before crimping. This innovation not only expedites the crimping process but also enhances accuracy, a boon particularly for novices in the field.

Feedback from industry professionals presents a nuanced picture of this technological evolution. Veteran technicians, who have long relied on standard crimpers, acknowledge their dependability and the precise results they deliver. However, many among them also recognize the advantages of pass-through technology, particularly in terms of efficiency. For newcomers, the pass-through, such as the PA1562 from Tempo®, emerges as a clear favorite. Its ease of use and speed in mastering the technique render it an ideal tool, especially suitable for those just entering the field.
