Crimper: A crimper is a tool used to attach RJ45 connectors to the ends of a cable, such as an Ethernet cable, by crimping, or compressing, the connector onto the cable. If the connectors are not staying attached, it often indicates that they have not been properly crimped onto the cable. Using a crimper will ensure a secure and stable connection between the cable and the RJ45 connectors.
