I was able to find them at Fry's Electronics in So Cal without much
difficulty. It's an IDEAL Telemaster #30-497 which handles MMJ and RJ45.
It's not top of the line but it only cost me around $50. I've had really
good experiences with the Telemaster line, and is about as good of a
crimper as I'd ever expect to need :-)
