Color-coded cable and ethernet port identification labels

Abstract

Cable and Ethernet Port ID Labels that have an adhesive backing and are both the same color for easy re-connection to the correct port are described. The labels allow the ethernet port and cable ends to be color coded so that reconnection can be made to the proper port if the cable is disconnected for any reason. Labels configured to be affixed to the ethernet plug of the ethernet (CAT5 or similar, such as fiber optic cable, coaxial cable, or other conventional telecom cabling) cable are precision cut such that they wrap around the plastic RJ 45 portion of the plug without interfering with the capacity of connection of the plug to the port. The adhesive is preferably designed to adhere to plastic, such as that of the wall plate of the port, and that of the plastic of the plug disposed on the cable(s) themselves.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
