Panduit T100X000C1M-BK PXE Continuous Tape Cassette for MP Portable Printers
Overview
The Panduit T100X000C1M-BK is a PXE™ continuous tape cassette designed for field and facility labeling with the MP200 and MP300 portable printer platforms. At 1 inch wide by 19 feet long (23.8 mm × 6 m), each cassette delivers enough nylon tape to label a significant run of cables, panels, or equipment — without stopping to reload. The black-on-white print combination gives you high-contrast output that reads cleanly against most infrastructure backgrounds. T100X000C1M-BK (often searched as T100X000C1M BK) ships in packs of 5 cassettes, making it straightforward to stock a team or a job box without over-ordering.
Key Features
- Nylon construction, 1" × 19 ft (23.8 mm × 6 m) per cassette: Nylon label tape handles the light abrasion and moisture typical of MDF rooms, cable trays, and industrial panel environments better than basic polyester. Nineteen feet per cassette means you're not swapping media every few minutes on a dense patch work — relevant when you're labeling a 48-port patch panel in a tight comms room.
- Black-on-white print: High contrast makes cable IDs and circuit labels scannable at a glance, even under dim rack lighting. Useful anywhere technicians need to read labels without pulling a flashlight.
- PXE™ cassette format — tool-free swap: The cassette integrates both the label stock and the ink ribbon in one unit. No fiddling with separate ribbon rolls; pull the spent cassette, insert a fresh one, and continue. Reduces downtime on jobs where a tech is working alone.
- Compatible with MP200 and MP300 portable printers: Confirmed compatibility limits guesswork when ordering supplies for an established MP-series install base. If you're running MP75 units, note that the source description specifically calls out MP200 and MP300 — verify separately before ordering for MP75.
- Pack of 5 cassettes per order, 120 cassettes per carton: The 5-pack unit is sized for a single technician's project or a small team's day bag. The 120-cassette carton quantity means volume orders break cleanly for stocking a supply room without fractional-carton waste.
- RoHS compliant: Meets the EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive — relevant for projects with green procurement requirements or customer-mandated environmental compliance documentation.
Integration & Compatibility
The T100X000C1M-BK cassette is verified for use with the Panduit MP200 and MP300 portable label printers. Cross-reference competitor part numbers M-49-498, T100X000C1C-BK, and T100X000CBC-BK if you're comparing against Brady or other MP-series alternatives in the same width class. The cassette format is specific to the PXE™ printer platform — it is not interchangeable with standard desktop label printers or other cassette systems. Confirm your printer model before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which printers is the T100X000C1M-BK compatible with?
A: The T100X000C1M-BK is confirmed for use with the Panduit MP200 and MP300 portable label printers. Verify compatibility before ordering for other MP-series models such as the MP75.
Q: How many cassettes come in each order?
A: Each package contains 5 cassettes. Bulk cartons contain 120 cassettes total.
Q: What label dimensions does this cassette produce?
A: The cassette produces continuous tape 1 inch (23.8 mm) wide and 19 feet (6 m) long per cassette. You cut labels to your required length in the field.
Q: What material is the tape?
A: The tape is nylon, providing durability suitable for cable management, panel labeling, and light industrial environments.
Q: Is the T100X000C1M-BK RoHS compliant?
A: Yes, the T100X000C1M-BK meets RoHS directive requirements.
Q: What are the cross-reference part numbers for this cassette?
A: Cross-reference competitor part numbers include M-49-498, T100X000C1C-BK, and T100X000CBC-BK.
The T100X000C1M-BK is a straightforward supply item, but getting the spec right matters — the 1-inch nylon format at 19 feet per cassette is a deliberate field choice. I've seen techs order the narrower 0.5-inch tapes for patch panel work and regret it when they're trying to fit a circuit ID plus a port number on the same label. At 23.8 mm, you have room to print readable text without abbreviating everything to a cryptic code.
Technical Highlights:
- 19 ft (6 m) continuous run per cassette: Long enough to label a full 24-port panel without reloading, which matters in dense comms rooms where cassette swaps break your rhythm and risk missequencing ports.
- Nylon material: More abrasion- and moisture-resistant than polyester alternatives — holds up in environments where cables get pulled, rerouted, or wiped down regularly, such as active data centers or industrial comms cabinets.
- 5-pack unit: Sized correctly for a day's labeling work for one tech. Ordering a single cassette is rarely economical; the 5-pack balances cost and shelf life without tying up budget in a 120-carton stock you don't need for a single project.
Deployment Considerations:
- This cassette is specifically validated for the MP200 and MP300 — if your field crew is running a mixed fleet that includes MP75 units, confirm cassette compatibility before issuing this SKU as a universal supply item.
- The PXE™ cassette integrates label and ribbon as a single unit, so there's no field-swappable ribbon option. Once the ribbon is spent, the entire cassette is replaced — factor that into your per-label cost calculation on high-volume jobs.
Best fit for structured cabling and panel labeling projects where a crew is deploying MP200 or MP300 printers and needs a reliable 1-inch nylon supply that doesn't require ribbon management in the field.
