[sdiy] mta connector extraction tool...

[Graham Atkins]

Hi Benjamin,

I presume you mean to release the inserts from the female housing, not  
the tool
to crimp the insert onto the cable ?. The inserts have a little tab  
which locks into
a slot in the housing. These are fairly springy and easily removed by  
pressing
them in with a small screwdriver or cocktail stick whilst gently  
pulling on the wire.
