Which punchdown tool do I need for my patch panel or data module?
Use the tool pattern specified for the IDC terminals on the patch panel, module, outlet or block. If the hardware is 110 IDC, use a 110 blade. If it is Krone IDC, use the Krone tool or another tool fitted with the correct compatible blade.
Do not choose the punchdown tool from the cable category alone. Cat5e and Cat6 tell you about the cabling performance; 110 and Krone tell you about the termination interface.
Thanks — glad it helped.
