You can create flag and wrapped labels to identify cords and cables. For best results, use special cable wrap tapes or strong adhesive tapes for labelling cables.
Flag labels provide a large surface for multiple lines of text. A vertical line marks the center of the flag to help you wrap the cable evenly.
Wrapped labels are useful for tight spaces where flags are too large or only a short identifier is necessary. Do not use a regularly printed label (lengthwise) as a wrapped label; bending the cord may cause the label to detach from the cord.
