To me far more important that color is tags, one on each end if it is more that a foot long. The tags should have a short (two or three word) description, the authority for the patch (person's name or position, order number, or trouble ticket number) and where the _other_ end of the patch is, followed by where _this_ is. (For short cords "this" will cover both ends, probably.Why "this end"? Make a mistake and pull the wrong one out of a mostlyclear jack-field sometime. Clarity will occur.Ha, I don't see many other people who do that. So is the labeling device of choice still the Dymo Rhino stuff?Preferences for/against heat shrink vs other methods? Always fun to seewhat others are doing.
I'm very fond of the Brady with the self-laminating wrap-around vinyl labels.
