Labeling
Labeling options are:
• Assembly labels
• Individual cable labels
• Custom labeling
By default, all QuickNet assemblies (both standard and semi-custom) have an assembly label on each end which includes
the part number, length, description, and a serialized quality control number. For termination types other than Cassettes,
each individual cable has a label indicating the number of the cable within the bundle (from 1 to 6).
Options are available for both custom assembly and custom cable labels. Up to two additional lines of customer-provided
information can be added to the assembly or cable labels. Typically custom labels are used by customers to list codes to
indicate patch panel or cabinet locations, or to uniquely identify trunks or individual cables.
QuickNet Standard Parts: Default assembly and cable labels are included.
