Patch knifes

Krone knife is a tool for assembling single wires into special keystone connectors . These connectors are most often used in patch panels as well as in telephone connectors (traditional telecommunications). The connector consists of 2 contacts-knives, between which the wire is pressed in such a way that the insulation is cut and the contacts are connected with the wire. Using the correct crossover knife ensures that:

• knives will not be damaged (by opening or breaking)
• the cable will be installed in the correct position
• wire will not be cut or broken

Currently, most devices use krone or dual block contacts (universal krone / IDC 110). Other specialized solutions for IDC 110 or Siemens.

Only a properly matched tool can be used to properly implement a properly functioning network installation.
