What are the types of cable labels?

Cable labels are a widely used identification product in the fields of electronic devices and cable management, used to mark and identify various types of cables. There are various types of cable labels that can be classified from different perspectives:

Classified by purpose and function

Barcode label: a common cable label that can quickly and accurately obtain cable information through barcode recognition devices, improving work efficiency.

RFID tags: Using radio frequency identification technology, they can wirelessly identify and track the location and status of cables, and are widely used in logistics and warehouse management.

High temperature resistant label: It has high temperature resistance characteristics and is suitable for cable identification in high temperature environments.

Classified by material

Plastic cable labels: usually have waterproof, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant and other characteristics, suitable for outdoor environments and harsh working conditions.

Metal cable labels: They have characteristics such as high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, and are suitable for high-temperature working environments and special occasions.

Paper cable labels: suitable for indoor environments and general working conditions, commonly used for temporary identification and short-term use.

Classify by shape and structure

Surface mount label: can be directly attached to the surface of the cable without occupying additional space.

Sleeve type label: The label needs to be wrapped around the cable, usually in the form of a heat shrink sleeve, to protect the cable and secure the label.

Wrapped label: a form of wrapping the label around a cable, suitable for situations where the label needs to be replaced frequently. There is also a saying that the wrap around label is called a covered protective film cable label.

Classify by color

Red label: can be used to identify hazardous cables.

Yellow label: can be used to identify warning cables.

Green label: can be used to identify grounding cables.

Transparent label: generally used for high-end cables, export cables, etc. The transparent label is printed with white color blocks, the other parts are transparent, and the white part is used for barcode machine printing.

White label: usually made of synthetic paper, with soft material and clear printing effect, commonly used to distinguish cable port numbers.

Special type

Roll type cable label paper: Adopting a simple wrap around design, it is easy to wrap cable label paper and can be used to mark cables such as optical fibers, network cables, and cables. It is suitable for cable identification in computer rooms.

P-type cable label paper: Shaped like a flag, also known as flag type cable label paper, all information about the cable can be clearly seen without flipping through the cable label paper on the cable.

Card line digital tag: using a number tube to directly card onto the cable for cable identification, it can be disassembled and reused.

Non covered protective film labels and hang tag labels: also a classification method for cable labels.

In addition, there are customized cable labels designed and produced according to customer needs, which can include information such as the customer's company name, logo pattern, contact information, etc., to enhance the brand image and professionalism of the enterprise and meet the needs of special application scenarios.

In summary, there are various types of cable labels, and users can choose the appropriate cable label according to their specific application scenarios and needs.
