First you should know I’m very picky with my keystones This last install I think I used about 200 of these I didn’t have to re-punch anything The plastic is sturdy And my favorite part on these is that it comes with a plate to put the Keystone into while you’re punching it so that you don’t have to put the Keystone on the floor or against the wall Makes the punching task much easier. When you’re ready to put these into the wall plate, they snap in easily I know that I’ve purchased keystones in the past that we very taxing on the fingers Overall, these are reliable, easy and friendly on the hands

Great Product Great Price

I ran CAT5e cables throughout the 1st floor and basement in my 2-story house when I moved in over 20 years ago. I had no network access from the 2nd floor until Wi-Fi came along, which is what I use for 2nd-floor access today. I have 2 Ubiquiti Unifi APs mounted on the ceiling of my 1st floor, but still have Wi-Fi dead spots on the 2nd floor. Instead of going with a wireless solution such as use of extenders or wireless mesh, I decided to run a single Ethernet cable from basement to attic to install an attic-mount AP. And since I’m going to have Ethernet connection in the attic, I decided to run drops from my attic to some of my 2nd floor rooms. I will be using these keystone jacks to terminate those drops. Since CAT5e equipment supports up to 2.5 Gigabits, it’s most likely adequate for my needs. But given small price differences between CAT5e and CAT6 products, it doesn’t make sense to use CAT5e in new installations. These CAT6 keystone jacks are nicely packaged and look well made. They work with my existing 110 punch down tool, and snap neatly into my existing wall plates. In fact, there’s no visible difference between my old Cat5e jacks and these CAT6s other than the CAT6 marking. I wouldn’t be surprised if these are just rebranded Cat5e jacks or even Cat5s. In any case, they work, which is all that matters to me.

Installed these keystone jack inserts in a budget cable matters and monoprice 24 port keystone patch panel for an SMB a few months back. Haven't had any trouble with them since installation. I didn't use the punch down tool it includes but the punch down stand works well. A few of them (around 2 or 3) had issues with connectors not clipping in securely but I was able to get the connector to click with a bit of force. I'd recommend them.

VCE 50-Pack RJ45 Cat6 90-Degree Keystone Jack As working from home has become part of our daily life, my husband has been doing major upgrades to our home network, including replacing 20-year-old CAT5 cables and also running new cables and installing jacks. These Keystone jacks were a good price and have worked as well as ones that are twice the price. After installing over 30 of them, there hasn't been a single dud. They come with a combination wire stripper and punch down tool, but they work perfectly with a professional 110 block punch down tool. Dimensionally, they fit snugly in a standard Keystone wall plate and patch panel. Hubby is very happy with them! Highly recommend.
