Cable Labeling and Record Keeping
A reliable cable labeling system is essential when planning and installing a network. Maintaining
accurate records helps you to:
●
Relocate devices easily.
●
Make changes quickly.
●
Isolate faults in the distribution system.
●
Locate the opposite end of any cable.
●
Know the types of network devices that your cabling infrastructure can support.
Consider the following recommendations when setting up a cable labeling system suitable for your
installation:
●
Identify cables by securely attaching a label to all cable ends.
●
Assign a unique block of sequential numbers to the group of cables that run between each pair of
wiring closets.
●
Assign a unique identification number to each distribution rack.
●
Identify all wiring closets by labeling the front panel of your Extreme Networks equipment and
other hardware.
●
Keep accurate and current cable identification records.
●
Post records near each distribution rack. Include the following cable drop information: the cable
source, destination, and jumper location.
