Issue 01 (2008-12-26)

B-5

Quick Start

l
All the printouts must be on the label, and nothing should be printed on the bottom page
of the label.
Contents in the cells should be aligned in the center. In a single-line printout, the dividing
lines and the mark "To:" should not be covered by the printed characters.
When the cells are merged and the printouts are made in multiple lines, avoid covering the
mark "TO:" when printing the texts the space bar to move the printing contents to the next
line.
B.1.4 Writing Labels

Writing Tools
To make sure the printouts are clear and legible, use the black oiliness markers instead of ballpens to write the labels.
In special cases, black ball-pens are allowed, although not recommended. Compared with ballpens, oiliness markers are better. When writing with the ball-pen, take care not to leave the oil
on the label, which may contaminate the label and blur the words.
NOTE
The delivered marker has two nibs. Make sure to use the smaller nib to write the labels.
Font
For the sake of easy recognition and good looking, the font in handwriting should be close to
the standard typeface (Times New Roman) as much as possible. Table B-1 shows the standard
typeface.

B.1.6 Contents of Engineering Labels

Contents of Labels for Power Cables
Labels for power cables are only affixed on one side of the identification plates. On the labels,
there is information (the part after the mark "TO:") about the location of the device on the other
end of the cable, like the location of control cabinet, distribution box or power socket.
Contents of Labels for Signal Cables

The two sides of the label affixed on the signal cable carry information about the location of the
ports connected to both ends of the cable. Figure B-8 shows the information on both sides of
the labels affixed to the signal cables.
l
Area 1 contains the location information of the local end of the cable.
Area 2 (with the mark "TO:") contains the location information of the opposite end of the
cable.
Area 3 has been folded up inside the label.
Figure B-8 Printed parts on the label for signal cables
Seen from the cabling end of the equipment, the text part of the label is on the right side of the
cable. The side with "TO:" that is facing outside carries the location information of the opposite
end; and the other side carries the location information of the local end.
Issue 01 (2008-12-26)

B-9

Quick Start
Therefore, the information in Area 1 at one end is the same as the information in Area 2 at the
other end of the cable. In other words, the local information at one end is called the opposite
information at the other end.
B.1.7 Precautions for Using Engineering Labels

When using labels, note the following:
l
When printing, writing, or affixing labels, you should keep the labels clean.
Since the label paper is made of moistureproof and waterproof material, ink-jet printers
and ink pens are forbidden for printing and writing labels.
Labels should be affixed tidily and gracefully. New-type labels are strip-shaped. If they are
pasted at incorrect locations or in wrong directions, the appearance of the device is affected.
Power cable ties should be bundled in the same position of power cables, with identification
plates on the same side.
The positions of up, down, left or right are all based on the viewpoint of the
engineering person who works on the label.
B.2 Engineering Labels for Optical Fibers

This describes the engineering labels for optical fibers, including the labels for the optical fibers
between devices and the labels for the optical fibers between a device and an ODF.
These labels are affixed to the optical fibers that connect the optical interfaces on the boards in

The labels are affixed to the DC power cables that provide power supply for cabinets, including
the -48 V, PGND, and BGND cables. Here, the DC power cables also include power cables and
protection grounding cables.
Issue 01 (2008-12-26)

MN(BC): BC is written right under MN.

B: chassis number, numbered in the bottom-top order with two digits,
for example, 01.
N: power socket number , numbered as 1 to 3 in the bottom-top and leftright orders.
On the loaded cabinet side, only MN is used to identify the cabinet.
On the power cabinet side, MN identifies the row and column number
of the power distribution equipment like a control cabinet and
distribution box, and BC identifies the row and column number of the
-48 V connector. If there is no row number or column number, or the
connector can be identified without them, BC can be omitted. It is
unnecessary for BGND and PGND to identify the row and column
number.
MN(BC)BBGND
MN(BC)BPGND
The label only carries location information about the destination direction of the power cable
while information of the local end is not necessary. That is, the label only carries location
information about the opposite equipment, the control cabinet, or the distribution box. Table
D-8 lists the information on two -48 V power supplies on the label. The information on other
DC voltages, such as 24 V and 60 V should be given in similar methods.
Make sure that labels are affixed in the correction direction. That is, after the cable ties are
bundled onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should face up, and the text on
the labels in the same cabinet should be in the same direction. For details, see Table B-8.
Figure B-15 Example of the labels for DC power cables
The meaning of the label in Figure B-15 is as follows:

l
B-20
On the loaded cabinet side, the label A01/B08--48V2 on the cable indicates that the cable
is -48 V DC supply, which is from the eighth connector on row B of -48 V bus bar in the
cabinet on row A, and column 1 in the equipment room.
Issue 01 (2008-12-26)

Quick Start
l
On the distribution box side, the label B03--48V2 indicates that the cable is -48 V DC
supply, connected to DC power socket 2 on row B, column 03 in the equipment room.
NOTE
In the power distribution box or the first power cabinet of a row in a transmission equipment room, every
terminal block on the -48 V connector bar has a numeric identification. For example, in the above label of
A01/B08--48V2, 08 (or sometimes 8) is the numeric identification of the terminal block.
PGND and BGND are two copper bars, on which the terminal blocks are short-circuited,
therefore which terminal is connected makes no difference. It is only necessary to give the row
and column of the power distribution box, instead of giving the specific serial number of the
terminal block on the copper bar. For example, if the label on the loaded cabinet side is A01BGND, it means that the power cable is a BGND that connects BGND copper bar in the power
distribution box on Row A, Column 01 in the machine room. Information on the labels for PGND
cables should be given in a similar way.
B.6.2 Engineering Labels for AC Power Cables

The labels are affixed to both ends of an AC power cable that provides AC power supply to
cabinets, including 220 V, PGND, and BGND cables. The 220 V AC cables and related PGND
and BGND cables are covered with insulating sheath, so the labels need to contain only the
words of AC" and the cabinet numbers.
The labels for AC power cables are affixed to one side of the identification plates on cable ties.

following the same rule for the cabinets. If the sockets cannot be identified
by rows and columns, specify the detailed locations to avoid confusing
with other sockets.
The label only carries location information about the opposite equipment and the power socket,
while information about the local end is not necessary.
Make sure that labels are affixed in correct direction. That is, after the cable ties are bundled
onto the cable, the identification plates with the labels should face up, and the text on the labels
in the same cabinet should be in the same direction, as shown in Figure B-16.
