The Platinum Tools 90185 EXO Cut, Strip, and Terminate Kit features the EXO Crimp Frame with the EXO-EX and the EZ-RJ45 interchangeable die sets. The EXO CST Kit therefore has everything you need to cut, strip, and terminate Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6A cables. The EZ-RJ45 Die works with standard EZ-RJ45 connectors to terminate Cat5e cables, while the EXO-EX Die works with the ezEX44 and ezEX48 connectors to terminate larger Cat6 and Cat6A cables.

The included EXO Crimp Frame improves the trim and crimping processes of ezEX-RJ45 connectors by using a single cycle crimp and flush trim. The crimp frame is equipped with ergonomic, comfort grip handles and a push button lock, allowing users to compress the handles and stow the tool for easy storage. Due to its die and tool design, the EXO Crimp Frame can be used right or left-handed: simply remove the die and turn it around before re-inserting it back into the tool.
