You’ve apparently never pulled hundreds of feet of ethernet cable from racks or under raised datacenter floors. Without these, you’re replacing that connector once it pops loose from the tangle without a tab
Broadcast jobs. Every single job you run, and then later pull, dozens or hundreds of data cables.
Oh, labelling? Forget it. You’ll label the first batch, and then be in a frantic rush that nothing else is labelled. Just a messy spreadsheet that you try to not forget.
People who work on highrises. Ownership and management really have no concept of what they are asking when they say the server room needs to go from one side of the building to another, especially if there is satellite internet. Fuck satellite internet.
Your infrastructure cabling shouldn’t ever be terminated to rj45. That should always be terminated to a keystone jack.
But even if you’re dealing with cables that were terminated into rj45 and need to be relocated with rj45s at the new location, you should just go ahead and cut the ends off. The end can get snagged and stuck with the end on.
Literally never found myself wanting one of these on my cable. I’ve found myself swearing at them more times than I can remember

Who’s pulling hundreds of feet of already terminated cable?

I also have tape
Couldn’t you tape it over when pulling?
