These won't stay plugged in. Bending the tab out makes them hook in temporarily, but it always go back to where it was and cables using these end up coming unplugged at the slightest touch. :(

This review is from: RJ45 CAT-5 E (8P8C) Crimp Connector solid, (100 Pcs Per Bag) (Electronics)

Every one of my service trucks comes with standard equipment - a power inverter, dewalt charger, deep cycle battery, rj-45 crimp tool, cat 5 wire, and of course these plugs or "ice cubes" as they are called in the industry. The trucks have accessories like a bright dewalt work light for after hours calls and cable testers, coax crimpers, coax testers, and adapters needed to make it all come together.

This is a fine quality crimp connector with insulation displacement teeth on the gold plated fingers, along with a crimp lock that grabs the cable securely.

I use probably 6 of these myself a day - in my trucks they go through them like candy. The important part is we can do any cat 5 install we need anywhere anytime. We've had no re-crimps and no problems with this connector. We keep a constant stock on hand in all trucks and all IT cubicles.

These are great connectors for using UTP CAT5e wiring. I have made custom length patch cables out of these with expected results. The connectors worked as advertised with my 8 pin RJ45 crimper. Good value for the money. Thanks!
