Yeah I have a single box 500ft box that I’ve gone through multiple residences with. Every time I need to plug something I just crimp crimp done.
I also got those passthrough connectors where you can stick the actual wires through each pin instead of having to trim them evenly, then the crimper cuts them. Makes it so much easier.
Did you use cat7 or less? I mean sure we can’t crimp it to cat7 spec (I assume you can’t either) but the price difference is not much of a reason (here).
There is no difference in the crimp between cat6 and cat7. None. Zero. It is the exact same process, the same pins.
Cat7 has larger conductors and specific connectors to accommodate them, but you can still make a cat6 connector work on a cat7 cable with some elbow grease.
It’s also totally pointless for 90% of use cases.
The differences in spec come from the shielding material in the cable, and the number of twists, the connectors themselves are the same standard

Yes, shielding. What I meant though, because they’re otherwise identical: do you purchase cat6 or cat7 or whichever is cheaper.
