The PRO-Strike Punchdown Tool is engineered for professional telecom and datacom installers, combining rugged durability with advanced functionality and ergonomic comfort. Designed for precision and efficiency, it supports reliable terminations across multiple cross-connect styles including 110, 66, Krone, and BIX™. This versatile tool terminates and cuts Cat3/5/5e/6 cables and is compatible with a wide range of industry-standard blades. Its spring-loaded mechanism ensures fast, low-effort wire seating and termination, while the bayonet-style twist-and-lock blade socket keeps blades secure during use. The tool features an integrated hook for feeding or removing wires and a multi-use spudger that functions as a screwdriver, IDC insert tool, or debris cleaner. Adjustable impact force settings allow precise control to meet ANSI/TIA-8762D standards, and it’s designed to prevent damage to sensitive circuitry. For added convenience, the handle includes a spare blade storage compartment, and the cut side is color-coded yellow for quick identification per industry standards.
