The Klein Tools VDV226-110 is a ratcheting data crimper for 28–22 AWG solid or stranded twisted-pair cable. It works with Klein Pass-Thru RJ45 connectors and standard RJ11/RJ12 four and six-position plugs for voice and data applications. The tool cuts, strips, and crimps in one motion without tool changes, saving time on CAT5e, CAT6, and CAT6A installations.
Modern data installations need speed and reliability. A hand tool that cuts, strips, and crimps without swaps keeps the jobsite moving and cuts rework. Klein's Pass-Thru design holds the cable and lets the wire pass through the connector body. This creates a flush-cut end that stops exposed conductor ends and contact between signal wires. Sparkies and data techs across Australia use the VDV226-110 to terminate hundreds of points on residential builds, commercial fit-outs, and network upgrades.
Trade buyers rely on the Klein Tools VDV226-110 for fast cable terminations and 100% success on every crimp. The ratcheting mechanism holds until the crimp finishes. The on-handle wiring guide mirrors CAT5e, CAT6, and CAT6A cable pairs, cutting setup time on site. The full-cycle ratchet prevents incomplete terminations and call-backs. The rubber grip and compact size make it comfortable during long installs—a real trade advantage wiring an entire commercial floor in one day.
The Klein Tools VDV226-110 is designed exclusively for Klein Tools Pass-Thru modular connectors and standard modular four-position (RJ11/RJ12) and eight-position (RJ45) connectors. It is not rated for use with older-style non-Pass-Thru RJ45 connector designs or coaxial cable crimping, and should not be used to crimp CAT7 shielded twisted-pair or cable rated above 28–22 AWG.

The VDV226-110 is rated for 28–22 AWG solid or stranded twisted-pair voice and data cables. It works with CAT3, CAT5e, CAT6, and CAT6A cable in both STP (shielded) and UTP (unshielded) formats, suitable for Ethernet, telephone, and low-voltage data installations.
The VDV226-110 is designed for Klein Tools Pass-Thru RJ45 connectors and standard modular four-position (RJ11/RJ12) and eight-position (RJ45) connectors. It is not compatible with older non-Pass-Thru RJ45 designs or coaxial cable crimpers.
The VDV226-110 is an all-in-one tool: it cuts the cable, strips the jacket, and crimps the connector in one ratcheting cycle without tool changes, saving setup time on jobsites.
The full-cycle ratchet locking mechanism holds the connector in place and does not release until the crimp cycle is complete, guaranteeing a finished termination every time and preventing incomplete crimps that could fail in the field.
No. The VDV226-110 is rated for 28–22 AWG twisted-pair cable only and is not suitable for CAT7, shielded high-impedance cable, or coaxial applications. Using it outside this specification may damage the tool or result in failed connections that will not pass field testing.
Klein Pass-Thru connectors allow the cable to pass through the connector body, enabling the crimper to flush-cut the wire end flush to the connector face. This eliminates exposed conductors and unintended contact between signal pairs, improving reliability and reducing rework. Standard RJ45 plugs do not have this pass-through design.
