none of them fit in any of my ethernet ports., they are very tight and won't clip no matter how hard I push.
However they worked exactly as expected and easy to use. Finally these were much less expensive than similar items I saw in the store or on Amazon. These are the first set of connectors I've ever purchased, so I can only compare against my exceptions. You didn't need to strip the internal wires so the only tedious part was to get the various twisted pairs lined up correctly.
This are SOOOO much easier to use than the ones I had for solid wire. This are for STRANDED wire. I'm happy.
It allows the cable to wriggle around and the wires come loose eventually. Solution, put a dab of superglue between cable and module, after crimping and testing. The modules are up to standard except for the collar/wedge that is supposed to hold the cable in place. Had about 1 out of 10 do this.
In the end, I found these connectors to be great. I will certainly buy these connectors in the future whenever I need to make more CAT5 cables. I bought these at the same time I bought my first crimper, so I was a bit skeptical on how the whole process worked. They always grasped the wire firmly and crimped on with ease.
