Cable Labels

jgreen726 · 30 Sep 2011 at 14:24

Hi

I have a couple of racks at work in which I need to label some network cables.

I have a brother thermal printer (like Dymo) which can print the labels but they dont look so good just folded around the cables. The Label printer prints out labels which are 12mm wide.

A few years ago i saw some cable labels which looked a little like plastic key fobs but i cant find them.

Anyone got anything they already use and would recommend?

Thanks!

Used one many moons ago (newer model) but found the aircon dried up the sticky bit , and left the cables.

Unsure if the newer ones have that problem??

Brady lasertab are pretty sweet, especially if you are doing lots.
