How long have telcos been using these 145P tags, and what's the origin story?
[cid:85469313-759d-41dd-b8de-58d536611039] I see them called out in some specs. The manufacturers' pitch is that it's "non-metal" and "fiber-based" to make it safe around electrical installations. I see the installers are tying the 145P on things and then printing out a label on their label printer to stick onto the 145P tag. If the printed label is acceptably "non-metal" and safe around electrical equipment, then why did you need the 145P tag? Why not just print out a wire marker label? I'm speculating that these come from a time when you couldn't just print out a plastic label on demand, and you could tie this onto the cable and write on it with a marker, but I have no basis for that other than they don't seem to make sense any other way. -Adam
