These are ths ones I was talking about:
They don't require stripping or doubling; they're
meant for phone wire like CAT-3, which usually
has the same wire gauge as CAT-5.
These are the ones that he was referring to when he said they have goop in them. You can get them with or without goop (insulator). They are made by 3m.
We used the monkey rubbers (that's what the telephone guys call the dolphins around here) for a long time and still do from time to time but the installers like the 3m connectors much better.
