Leviton here as well, with a JackRapid (trying Bunny's trick this weekend to cure the notchy-ness). I'd rather be using Lucent/Avaya/Systimax, but yeah, too pricey unless it's a huge job or spec'd.
I see ICC is now advertising color matching with Leviton products (although they can't name Lev in the ads). May have to give them a try.
I won't touch generics or house brands. Not worth the risk.
Systimax is not owned by Avaya/Lucent/AT&T anymore!! Commscope bought them a couple of years ago. Commscope has another line of jacks/hardware called "Uniprise". I was curious if anybody has used these jacks, and what your opinions where.
justbill, thanks for the edit earlier. And thanks to everyone for the opinions. I'm using this information from this thread to make a point to a few wanna be techs. They seem to listen to sales propaganda rather than experiance from veteran installers with field experiance. After this thread gets a few more days worth of input I'll sum up all the opinions and post the results.
Leviton here with a Harris Jack Rapid--any faceplates, or surface housings or patch panel plates as long as we can put Leviton inserts in them. Have tried 4 or 5 other brands but Leviton is a good priced, quality product that is readily available. That's what I want. The other ones fall down in one or more of the categories, IMHO.
I can't believe that I'm actually going to type this, but I use Ortronics and Panduit extensively, with the exception of wall and surface jacks which I use suttle for. Please don't hate me guys.
I use Hellermann Tyton exclusively for faceplates, voice & data jacks and patch panels. I've worked with alot of different types of jacks and I think that the Hellerman Tyton products aren't nearly as flimsey as other manufacturers. Wall phone & bisquit jacks are ICC
