Panduit S100X150VBC Self-Laminating P1 Vinyl Label Cassette

Overview

The Panduit S100X150VBC is a self-laminating vinyl label cassette designed for the P1 portable label printer. Each cassette measures 1 inch wide by 1.5 inches long with a blue 0.5-inch printable zone, and ships with 200 pre-loaded labels per cassette. The transparent vinyl overlaminate protects printed text from abrasion, moisture, and the general punishment of a working cable plant — which is why this format is the standard for cable management and wire identification in structured cabling environments. If you are tagging Cat 5e or Cat 6 runs, this cassette is matched to that application by specification.

The quick-load P1 cassette format integrates both the label material and the ink ribbon in a single drop-in unit, so a technician in the field can swap media in seconds without handling loose ribbon spools or dealing with alignment issues. That matters on a dense patch-panel install where you have 48 ports to label and a floor-close deadline.

Key Features

• Self-Laminating Vinyl Construction: The transparent vinyl overlaminate seals printed text behind a clear protective layer, keeping cable IDs legible through installation handling, cleaning, and years of service in a telecommunications room or equipment rack. This is the difference between a label that lasts a decade and one that smudges on contact.
• 1" x 1.5" Format with 0.5" Print Zone: The full label footprint gives enough surface area to wrap cleanly around a cable jacket without bunching, while the 0.5-inch (12.7mm) printable height supports two-line alphanumeric identifiers at a readable size — enough for a port number and circuit ID on the same label.
• Blue Print Zone: The blue background zone makes labeled cables immediately distinguishable by color zone in mixed-use wiring closets. Color-zoning by cassette type is a practical discipline when you are managing voice, data, and AV runs in the same pathway.
• Cat 5e / Cat 6 Application Rating: This cassette is rated for Category 5e and Category 6 cable identification — it is not a generic label stock. That rating matters for compliance documentation on structured cabling projects where the labeling system is part of the record.
• 200 Labels per Cassette: A single S100X150VBC cassette yields 200 labels, which covers a typical 4-cabinet row installation or a multi-floor horizontal run labeling job without a mid-job swap. Plan on roughly one cassette per large IDF.
• Quick-Load Integrated Ribbon: The P1 cassette format combines label stock and ribbon into one replaceable unit. No ribbon threading, no separate media loading — drop the cassette in and print. On a job site where technicians are moving between locations, that simplicity reduces waste and mislabeled runs from setup errors.
• RoHS Compliant: Meets RoHS requirements, which matters for enterprise procurement teams and projects in jurisdictions with hazardous-substance restrictions on electrical and electronic equipment accessories.
• Sold Individually, Carton of 10 Available: Packaged as a single cassette (Package Qty: 1) with a carton quantity of 10, so you can order exactly what a project requires or stock a carton for a maintenance depot without over-committing budget on labels that may sit unused.

Integration & Compatibility

The S100X150VBC is designed for the Panduit P1 portable label printer platform. The quick-load cassette system is exclusive to P1-series printers — confirm your printer model before ordering. The cassette is not cross-compatible with other Panduit label printer families (e.g., PanTher LS8 or LS9 series) or third-party portable printers. For organizations standardizing on a labels and markers system across multiple sites, buying a carton of 10 cassettes at once simplifies inventory management and ensures consistent label stock across field teams. Pair with a Panduit P1 portable printer and a structured cabling plan for a complete identification workflow on Cat 5e/6 installations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How many labels come in a single S100X150VBC cassette?

A: Each S100X150VBC cassette contains 200 self-laminating vinyl labels. The cassette also integrates the ink ribbon, so no separate ribbon purchase is required.

Q: What printers is the S100X150VBC compatible with?

A: The S100X150VBC is designed for the Panduit P1 portable label printer. It uses the quick-load P1 cassette format and is not compatible with other Panduit printer families or third-party printers.

Q: What cable categories is the S100X150VBC rated for?

A: This cassette is rated for Category 5e and Category 6 cable identification applications, making it appropriate for structured cabling documentation and labeling compliance.

Q: Is the S100X150VBC RoHS compliant?

A: Yes, the S100X150VBC meets RoHS compliance requirements as specified by Panduit.

Q: What are the label dimensions on the S100X150VBC?

A: Labels are 1 inch (25.4mm) wide by 1.5 inches (38.1mm) long, with a printable zone height of 0.5 inches (12.7mm). The material is transparent vinyl with a blue print zone.

Q: Can I order a carton quantity of the S100X150VBC?

A: Yes. The S100X150VBC is sold individually (Package Qty: 1), and the standard carton contains 10 cassettes — useful for stocking a depot or covering a multi-IDF project without multiple small orders.

The S100X150VBC is the cassette I reach for when a project spec calls out Cat 5e or Cat 6 cable identification by name — the application rating is baked into the product, not just a marketing label. Each cassette delivers 200 self-laminating vinyl labels at 1" x 1.5" with a 0.5" blue print zone, and the integrated ribbon means you are not juggling loose media on a ladder in a wiring closet.

Technical Highlights:

• 200 Labels Per Cassette: At 200 labels per drop-in unit, a single cassette covers a 48-port patch panel with enough left over for horizontal run tags and spares — one cassette, one IDF, one trip to the supply cabinet.
• Integrated Ribbon Cassette: The P1 quick-load format puts ribbon and media in one unit. Field swap time is measured in seconds, not minutes — no threading, no alignment, no misprinted first labels after a reload.
• RoHS Compliance: Enterprise procurement and government projects increasingly require RoHS documentation on all accessories, including labeling media. The S100X150VBC clears that gate without a waiver request.

Deployment Considerations:

• Verify your printer model is P1-series before ordering — this cassette format does not transfer to Panduit's PanTher or other label printer families, and a mismatch will leave you with 200 unusable labels on a job-site deadline.
• The 0.5-inch printable height accommodates two-line identifiers comfortably, but if your labeling standard requires more than two lines or a larger font for ADA or low-visibility conditions, evaluate a larger format cassette instead.

This cassette is the right call on structured cabling projects — enterprise office builds, data center horizontal runs, and IDF/MDF installations — where Cat 5e/6 compliance documentation is part of the project closeout package and the labeling system needs to hold up through years of moves, adds, and changes without fading or peeling.
