Brad, Thanks for your feedback! We do have locked racks that we use the coloring scheme. We still see the benefit here if not even more. Techs can now look from the outside of the rack without having to open the door to confirm A/B redundancy for power and network. But I do see how it would be harder to know if you have SM or MM cabling if you cannot look at the connectors. We did look at the color striping and found that manufacturing process would be complicated and expensive. I would have like to use the color striping, one would think that it would cover all perspectives.
