While looking for something else, I stumbled across these cable marker clips and thought I'd share. I've been retired since 2004 and have been out of the game for 15 years now, so this may be old news to many or most of you. After struggling with stick-on, wrap around numbered or lettered Brady and Ideal labels for cables and wiring for over 31 years, I guess they figured "....OK, Tony's retired now, we can finally release those nice, colored-coded, sliding, re-usable cable markers".

I find it cool also that they use the EIA electronic color code , which many of you may realize, beginning with red, reflects the colors of a real rainbow from top to bottom! Yes, kids...it's "Roy G. Biv" !

Anyway, they're ezitown 0-9 Coded Clip on Plastic Cable Identification Wire Cord Cable Marker and are only a nickel apiece. The KN-40 is suggested for cable from 4.0 to 6.0 mm (.157 to .236") which should work for CAT-5e and the KN-60 (6.0mm to 10.0mm) for CAT-6. I'd choose on the tighter side.

Sure would put the final touch on a patch panel and/or rack setup!
