  infrastructure is structured cabling. It offers a
  dependable, effective, and scalable method of

  Must-Have Equipment for Seamless Connections
• Crimping Tool A crimping tool is a device used
  to firmly and securely fasten connectors to the
  ends of cables. Using pressure and force to bend
  the connection and the cable conductor together
  and create a tight fit. A crimping tool should
  work with several connector types, including
  RJ45, BNC, and LC.

• Punch-Down Tool A wall jack or patch panel can
  insert and secure cables using a punch-down tool.
  It operates by inserting the wire into a jack,
  panel, or terminal, trimming the extra wire, and
  locking it in place. The blade of a punch-down
  tool needs to be strong, sharp, and capable of
  handling different gauges of wires.

• Cable tester A cable tester is a tool that
  assesses a cables electrical properties,
  including resistance, capacitance, impedance, and
  continuity. Additionally, it can spot cable flaws
  and defects like shorts, openings, splits, and
  crosstalk.
• Fiber Optic Cleaver A fiber optic cleaver is
  used to precisely cut fiber optic cables,
  resulting in a smooth and flat end face. It is
  used to prepare the fiber optic cable for
  connectorization or fusion splicing. A good fiber
  optic cleaver should have a blade that can cut
  precisely and cleanly without damaging or
  cracking the fiber.

• Cable stripper A cable stripper is a device that
  takes off a cables outer insulation or jacket to
  reveal the interior conductors or wires. It is
  used to get the cable ready for splicing or
  termination. Coaxial, twisted pair, and fiber
  optic cables, among others, should all be able to
  be stripped without causing internal damage.
