New Zealand Information Security Manual (NZISM) 10.6.30.C.01: 10.6.30.C.01 Apply cable labelling principles and specific requirements

For CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET and TOP SECRET systems, agencies should put into practice the cable labelling principles and specific requirements set out in the rationale of this block (10.6.30.R.01 and 10.6.30.R.02). The principles are: labelling is logical and consistent at all locations and matches project drawings; the scheme identifies associated physical locations (building, room, cabinet, rack, port, etc.); labels are easy to read, durable and last the life of the labelled component; all stakeholders agree the scheme and identifiers; and labelling covers everything, including cables, connecting hardware, conduits, firestops, grounding and bonding locations, racks, cabinets, ports and telecommunications spaces. The specific requirements are: every label uses a permanent identifier; the numbering scheme is logically organised with alphanumeric characters; each cable and pathway is labelled at each end, with each label naming the termination points at both ends; labels are legible, resist defacement, and adhere strongly and durably; labels can be read without unplugging a cable; station connection labels may be on the face plate; all jack, connector and block hardware is labelled on the outlet or the panel; and every label agrees with installation and maintenance records.
