An Ergonomic Design: The tool body is comfortable to hold and easy to navigate with either hand. It is designed for one-handed operation and accommodates both large and small hands. Because the spring-loaded jaws are long and tapered, they easily reach the back of patch-panel enclosures. The tool design prevents pinching the operator's hand when opening or closing the jaws An Integrated Flashlight: A patented removable flashlight improves visibility while navigating through a congested enclosure. The light illuminates individual ports and connectors on the panel as well as the tool tips, which allows the tool to be used in low-light situations. The two standard AAA batteries can be easily changed in the field. Contoured Notch for LC Connectors: During insertion of LC connectors, the patented notch on one tip prevents the latch from being depressed, ensuring positive latching of the connector. During removal, the straight tip depresses the latch and frees the connector from its port.
