ABSTRACT:
A telephone wire termination tool is configured to reliably seat and cut one or more wires in a reduced capacity wire termination receptacle, such as an AT&T/Lucent Technologies, RJ-45/M-series type jack. The tool comprises a pistol handle having a trigger which is operative to bring an actuator into engagement with a wire-insertion and cutting head carrier. The cutting head carrier retains a multiple wire-insertion and cutting head having a plurality of unitary wire-insertion and cutting blades, and is linearly translatable along an axis of the handle towards a nose end of the tool. The carrier cavity is sized such that the cutting head blades protrude from beyond the carrier, so that they may readily engage the reduced capacitry wire termination receptacle retained in a wire termination receptacle holder installed at the nose end of the tool handle. As the operator grips the handle and squeezes the trigger, the carrier will be linearly pushed along the handle axis toward the wire termination receptacle holder, so as to precisely bring the wire termination receptacle and the wire-insertion and cutting head into engagement with one another, and cause the unitary structure-configured blades of the cutting head to seat and cut wires in the wire termination receptacle.
