CAT6A Network Equipment

Just wondering what kind of tools everyone is using to make CAT6A cables. Before anyone says cat6a is overkill, I work in datacenter and we are upgrading our network connections from 1gb to 10gb.

I have been a long time user of platinum tools, but I do not think it will support cat6a. Is anyone crimping with the below setup?

Platinum Tools 100054C Clamshell EZ-RJPRO HD Crimp Tool and Shielded EZ-RJ45® for CAT5e & CAT6 with Internal Ground

My gut feeling it is not supported. I am looking at:
