The Radio Shack connectors worked perfectly the first time. I have crimped many an RJ45 connection in my home. I noticed that the wires seemed to slide home more securely in the Radio Shack connectors. In attempting to patch a new cat5 wire, I tried four times with these Belkin connectors, two on each end, then gave up. I went to Radio Shack and bought new connectors (paying $8 for five). They were well worth the extra money to me. Wish I'd just gone to Radio Shack in the first place (no, I'm not connected in any way to Radio Shack).
As expected these are Cat 5 Mod Clips - RJ45 - Worth the price.
These plugs worked exactly as I expected them to. I also bought a Belkin crimper tool in order to crimp the actual cables into the plugs. However, even though they are so cheap here, it might actually be cheaper to go to the store and buy them because the S&H is greater than the actual cost of the product. If you don't want to bother with the hassle of going to the store, then this is a find product for you.
