Professional cable labeling as the basis for structured IT cabling (in accordance with EN 50174 and ISO/IEC 14763-2)

In modern data centers, standard-compliant, durable and clearly legible cable identification is an essential part of structured IT cabling. In accordance with the requirements of EN 50174, the international standard ISO/IEC 14763-2 and the American documentation standard ANSI/TIA-606-D, all data and network cables must be clearly identifiable in order to ensure efficient and error-free installation, operation and maintenance.
These standards stipulate that cables, connection points and connecting elements must be systematically identified and documented - for example, using standardized identifiers, colour coding and machine-readable markings. The aim is to ensure complete traceability, high operational reliability and minimal downtime in the event of a fault.

Texit has specialized in the development and production of durable and standard-compliant marking solutions for electrical cables and IT cabling for over 20 years. Our products help you to efficiently label structured network and data center infrastructures - in compliance with applicable standards and optimally tailored to your individual requirements.

With just one printing system, you can print all labeling materials permanently and in compliance with standards - from cables and wires to devices, switches and patch panels. We will be happy to advise you individually on the optimum marking of your network technology.

Self-laminating cable labels

are ideal for permanent, space-saving and standard-compliant marking of network cables in accordance with EN 50174, ISO/IEC 14763-2 and ANSI/TIA-606-D. They support the requirements for installation quality and environmental resistance as well as structured documentation and clear identification.

The labels are made of robust plastic, adapt to variable cable diameters and are resistant to abrasion, moisture and chemicals. Colored variants enable logical segmentation of cable structures, e.g. by function, floor or system type. The labels can be removed without leaving any residue during conversions - ideal for dynamic IT and data center environments.

As a manufacturer, we offer you almost all color variants and sizes - compliant with international and European standards.

Cable markers WITHOUT cable ties

Our new product innovation "cable markers without cable ties" are also suitable for labeling IT & network cabling. To identify a single network connection, these markers can simply be wrapped around the cable and tightened using the loop at the end. The markers are available in different colors and can be used for cables with a diameter of up to 8 mm. Thanks to the high-quality materials, the markers are halogen-free and also UL94 compliant.

Structured cabling

Cable clips for patch cables

The PAM cable clips are ideal for structured cabling. The clips can be pushed directly onto the cables with the aid of a mounting rod supplied. Thanks to the high-quality plastic (POM) and the standard latching nose, the clips align themselves automatically on the cable and have no sharp edges. If changes are required, the clips can be easily removed and replaced. As the PAM markers can also be retrofitted, it is not absolutely necessary to install them during installation. You can find more solutions for marking with cable clips on the PAM product page.

What is IT cabling?

IT cabling (electronic data processing cabling) refers to the system of physical cables, connections and hardware components used for the transmission of data in a computer network. This cabling is a fundamental part of the IT infrastructure and enables communication in computer systems between different devices, computers and network components within a building, data center or over larger geographical areas.

What is an IT network?

A computer network (electronic data processing network) refers to a network of computers and other devices that are connected to each other to exchange data, share resources and enable communication. These networks are usually used in companies, organizations or even private households to facilitate access to information and services.

IT networks can come in different sizes and forms, from small local area networks (LANs) to large global networks (wide area networks, WANs). The cabling, protocols and choice of devices can vary depending on the requirements and objectives of the network.

What is structured cabling?

Structured cabling is an approach that is widely used in IT cabling. It is a standardized and systematic method of organizing and implementing cables and hardware components in a building or data center. Structured cabling facilitates the flexibility, scalability and maintenance of networks by providing a clear structure for the placement of cables and connections.

How can cables for IT / EDP cabling be labeled?

There are several methods for labeling IT/EDP cabling. Self-adhesive or self-laminating cable labels are often used, on which clear information such as cable type, connection details and location are printed. Color coding can also be implemented. Shrink sleeves and cable markers without cable ties provide permanent and tamper-proof identification. In rack-mount environments, special cable management panels and patch panels with built-in labeling capabilities can be used. Thorough documentation of cabling, including a directory of locations, functions and connections, is also critical.

How do you label fiber optic cables correctly?

The labeling of fibre optic cables (optical fibres) requires particular care, as these cables are sensitive, often very thin and of high technical quality. Professional marking ensures clarity, conformity to standards and reduces incorrect cabling - especially in networks and data centers.


Depending on the location and cable type, fiber optic cable marking is suitable:

-Self-laminating labels: Consist of a printable area and a transparent protective film.

- Heat shrink tubingParticularly robust and safe. They are pushed over the cable and shrunk on by heating.

- Cable markers & cable clipsIdeal for very thin or tight spaces.

- Cable flagsOffer a larger text field and are still space-saving.

Cable flags are ideal for marking fiber optic cables or for marking fiber optic cables
Self-laminating cable labels are a very good choice for network cables - whether in data centers or for IT cables in office buildings or public facilities.
