I remember seeing RJ-45 (cat 5 I think they were) crimp connectors that had
holes for the conductors drilled entirely through the connector such that
each conductor could be fed out the end. After the crimp the conductors can
be clipped off.

But I can't remember where I saw these.

Who makes these? Where can I find them?

Thanks.

I think AMP makes some like that. I used to run a department that
made custom cabling, and I ours were that way. But we used an auto-
crimp machine to crimp them. Why do you need the ones that go all the
way through?

A guy, asking for help, can't seem to get "skilled" at crimping connectors
onto a cable. I think such connectors would be easier to handle for a
beginner.

I found them:

Bomar "EZ" type connectors.

I think Jameco has these.
