Unplugging booted ethernet cables

I suspect this is a pretty simple question. I apologize if it's kind of dumb.

I'm going to be plugging ethernet cables into two 48-port switches on top of each other. From top to bottom, that's 4 cables in only 2u height. That's a lot of cables in a very tight space; High-density.

My fat fingers have a lot of trouble removing booted ethernet cable sometimes. And I would find it very difficult to do so in a tight space, between giggle management. Does anyone have a suggestion for this?

Is there a tool for removing booted ethernet cables from a port easily? Is the answer simply to use needle-nose pliers? Or should I be looking at some other kind of cable end?

Thanks
