Hello experts,<br />
<br />
I am making a diagram of my office-network and was wondering if there is such a thing as a color standard. Does Cisco or CompTIA have a best practices as far as color-coding goes?<br />
<br />
I want to color code;<br />
<br />
1. Different speed ethernet cables(10/100/1000)<br />
2. Active/dead drops<br />
3. First and Second floor cables<br />
4. Cat 5/Cat 6 cables<br />
<br />
Is there an industry standard? I tried to google this and didn't find anything.<br />
<br />
Thanks

Is there a standard Network Color Scheme???

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.
