Compact Pass-Thru Termination Tool
The Klein Tools VDV226-110 combines cutting, stripping and crimping for paired-conductor data cables in a single hand tool. It accepts RJ11, RJ12 standard and RJ45 Pass-Thru connectors for voice and data installations. A full-cycle ratchet mechanism forces complete termination before release. An on-tool wiring guide helps reduce miswires during assembly.
Pass-Thru Connector Efficiency
Pass-Thru plugs let conductors exit the connector face so the tool trims them flush, removing the need to pre-measure and pre-trim each wire. The tool crimps four, six and eight-position modular connectors and works only with Klein Pass-Thru connectors sold in packs of 10, 50 or 200. Standard non Pass-Thru plugs are not compatible. A replacement blade set VDV999-076 is available separately.
Technicians Running Structured Cabling
Installers who terminate CAT3, CAT5e and CAT6/6A cables daily will benefit from the integrated stripper, cutter and crimper with a comfort grip that reduces hand strain. The tool handles 28 to 22 AWG solid or stranded round and flat cable. Buyers who need to crimp standard RJ45 plugs, require a multi-network tester, or work with fibre-optic connectors should look at other specialised tools.

Questions about this item
Will the cutting blades need replacing after heavy use?
A replacement blade set is available under part number VDV999-076 when the original edges wear down.
What stops the ratchet from releasing before the connector is fully seated?
The full-cycle ratchet mechanism locks until the crimp stroke finishes, then releases automatically.
How warm do the handles get during a long day of terminations?
The rubber comfort grip stays cool because the tool has no motor or heating element; only hand force is applied.
