Thanks for the helpful suggestions.
For what it's worth we use Cisco's CNR as we operate a MAC registration

I don't know of any hard standard in use anywhere. I've generally taken
to the following:
Green == low-bandwidth straigh-through
Telephone, T1, Serial, etc.
Purple == Roll Cables (almost always serial, sometimes telecom)
(8-1 7-2 6-3 5-4 4-5 3-6 2-7 1-8)
Orange(C) == EIA-568b

Very true. Another suggestion I will offer is that it is relatively
inexpensive to order cables with pre-printed serial numbers.
I get them for about $0.20/cable more than I could buy in bulk
and I get them in relatively low quantities. They cost about half
of what buying a cable at Fry's

Once upon a time, plenum-rated cable only seemed to come in white or blue,
so I tried to use white consistently. Always helps to visually identify
the correct usage for POPs in existing buildings.
And, I've a tendency to use black for internal network management (unable
to be seen off LAN/VPN).

To me far more important that color is tags, one on each end if it is

The tags should have a short (two or three word) description, the
