Actually, as awkward as those rubber hoods are, what I like about them is
that when you're pulling a disconnected patch cable through a rat's nest
of wires, they prevent the plastic tab from being bent backward.
 
Not a shameless plug since I don't work for them or own any stock, but
Avaya makes a snagless cable with a second clip which hinges from the
back of the RJ-45 connector.  Makes them easier to use as opposed to
hooded and regular vanilla cables.
