Hi
I'm looking for a good (and long lasting) way to label 4 wire flat
telephone cables (I don't know the technical name of the cable). I
tried using p-touch labels, but they came off. I also tried using
MityMark ZT wire marking system, but they also peeled off pretty
quickly.
Can any one recommend a solution that will hold?



TIA
Paolo

Clear shrink wrap over toner-printed paper. Easiest to put on
before the RJ is crimped on.

Agreed, except I use P-touch labels, with heatshrink. they tend to stay
put, while paper tends to wander.

Also check out Brady labels..

Panduit makes all sorts of mylar stick-on labels for this purpose.
I've used the laser printer sheets and made up sequences batches of
numbers and pealed themm off as needed. The're perfect. The major
problem is that the last time I looked the smallest package they sold
was almost 100 bucks.

They send me a sample of a page each of several types sent to my
company address.

Brady as well as others have a self-laminating label that is Laser
Printable (The LAT series and the clear portion protectes the printed
portion. Very easy to put install and come in various sizes (width and
length).
Problem is that the minimum quantity of 1000 label package which was
mentioned by another replyer. If you have a sequence and know what you
need in advance, I can provide this at a minimal cost over the blank
labels (my minimum is by a full sheet). If you need this service please
email at jpgolan-rcdd@earthlink.com and we can pick up on the details off
the forum. I also can proiduce labels for your patch panels, blocks,
outlets, etc. All professionally done (Laser-jet or Thermal xfer
printing). I can use you database or provide services as needed at hourly
rate. All typical jobs get a 48 hour turn around but 24-hour is possible.
I have 1000s of labels in stock (including some in color backgrounds for
EIA/TIA requirements). I can also produce cusome labels for any special
needs you have.
Your other option is to use special hand-held printers for the onesy-twosy
need, again Brady as well as others can help you with these product and
also have the self-laminating label stock.
