Label Cables and Keep Accurate Records
A reliable cable labeling system is essential when planning and installing a network.
Keeping 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.
Follow these guidelines when setting up a cable labeling system suitable for your
installation:
• Identify cables by securely attaching labels 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 identication number to each equipment rack.
• Identify all wiring closets by labeling the front panel of your Extreme Networks
equipment and other hardware.
