Panduit S100X400YAJ Self-Laminating Polyester Wire Labels
The Panduit S100X400YAJ delivers durable wire and cable identification for datacenter, telecom, and commercial AV installations. Each label combines a white printable section with a clear protective overlaminate that wraps around conductors, shielding printed text from abrasion, solvents, and UV exposure. At 1" x 4" (25.4 mm x 101.6 mm), the format suits most category cable bundles, fiber trunks, and patch-panel terminations. Laser and inkjet compatibility lets you print on-demand from Panduit's Asy-Mark Plus software or standard office printers. Polyester construction survives plenum environments and outdoor enclosures. Ships in 1,000-label rolls, enough for a mid-sized building deployment or multiple cabinet retrofits.
Key Features
- Two-part construction: white polyester print zone plus transparent overlaminate for wrap-around protection
- 1" x 4" (25.4 mm x 101.6 mm) format fits Cat5e/6/6A cable bundles, fiber trunks, and coax runs
- Laser and inkjet printer compatible - print from Asy-Mark Plus or standard office software
- Polyester substrate resists moisture, chemicals, and temperature swings (-40°C to +150°C)
- UL Recognized (UL969, File MH14979) and ASTM E-595 compliant for plenum airspace installations
- RoHS compliant for spec compliance in public and federal projects
- 1,000 labels per package - enough for a full floor or multiple equipment closets
The two-layer design starts with a white polyester print surface that accepts toner and ink without smearing. After printing, you peel the backing from the clear overlaminate tail and wrap it around the cable, creating a sealed flag or wrap-around label. The overlaminate bonds permanently to the print layer, protecting against finger oils, cleaning solvents, and UV fade. Polyester's dimensional stability means labels stay readable through thermal cycling in outdoor cabinets and rooftop equipment shelters. The 1" height accommodates 8-12 point fonts with room for two lines of text - enough for circuit ID, destination room, and VLAN tag on structured cabling, or camera name and IP address on surveillance runs. Material thickness (5 mil total) prevents ghosting when wrapped, so both sides of a cable bundle stay legible.
Self-laminating labels solve the durability problem that adhesive-only or heat-shrink alternatives leave open. In dusty warehouse environments, the sealed overlaminate keeps barcodes scannable after months of handling. During troubleshooting in dense patch panels, the flag style lets technicians read labels without disturbing adjacent cables. The 4" print length supports QR codes for asset-tracking integration - large enough for 300 DPI scanners to read from 12" away, critical in dark server-room aisles. Printing in-house eliminates lead times for pre-printed labels and lets you adjust naming conventions mid-project as network designs evolve. The 1,000-label quantity matches the scale of typical commercial installations: a 50-camera surveillance retrofit uses roughly 200 labels (camera end, switch end, and splice-point markers), while a 500-drop structured cabling project consumes 600-800 labels depending on documentation density.
UL969 recognition confirms adhesive performance across the operating range, and ASTM E-595 compliance (outgassing limits for plenum materials) keeps the product specifiable in air-handling spaces without a fire marshal's variance. The white/clear color combination meets most corporate standards for cable ID while remaining neutral enough for multi-tenant spaces. Competitor cross-references (Brady LAT-19-361-1, 3M TAG50L-105) confirm dimensional compatibility if you're migrating from another label system and need matching sizes for consistency. For integrators managing large-scale cable plants, the S100X400YAJ gives you in-house print flexibility, code-compliant materials, and the wrap-around protection that keeps documentation readable through years of moves, adds, and changes.
