DIY Cable Labels – Custom Design Your Own Network Cable Labels

Since moving into our home in 2013 the network cables at our media panel have been unlabeled, meaning we’ve had no idea which cable went to which room in the house. I’ve thought about labeling them for years now and in this video I finally get around to doing it. I looked at simply buying some pre-made labels online but I’m a DIY kind of guy and felt I could make something myself for much less money that would suit our purpose perfectly; so I grabbed some clear packaging tape, fired up Photoshop on my PC and got to work. In his video I show you the process of how I planned and made my labels as well as how I traced/identified which cables go to which rooms in our house. It’s actually pretty simple. I hope you enjoy the video and it helps spark some ideas for you.
