Affixing Labels
The cable labels facilitate the cable connection and maintenance.
If the customers require label consistency in their equipment rooms, fill in and arrange the labels according to requirements.
This section describes how to attach a label for a signal cable and a power cable.
Affixing a Label to a Signal Cable
The label attaching position on a signal cable is 2 cm from the connector. In special cases, for example, to avoid bending the cable or affecting other cables, you can attach the label to a different position.
A label should be affixed to each end of a cable. When the cable is placed vertically, the label should point rightwards, and when the cable is placed horizontally, the label should point downwards. Figure 7-50 shows how to properly attach a label to the signal cable.
Figure 7-51 shows how to attach a label to a signal cable.
Affixing a Label to a Power Cable
Remove a label from the bottom of the label page, and then attach it to the concave part on either side of the identification plate of a cable tie. Ensure that the label directions are consistent in the equipment room. The cable tie should be fastened 2 cm from the connectors. In special cases, the labels can be affixed to other positions.
Cable ties should be fastened at both ends of a cable. After bundling the cables, the completed identification plate should be visible on the top of the cable in the horizontal cabling, or on the right side of the cable in the vertical cabling. Make sure that the label points outwards, as shown in Figure 7-52.
