Binding Waterproof Labelsb
Attach waterproof labels to corresponding cables
The default position for attaching a waterproof
label is 2cm away from the connector. In special
scenarios, the label can be attached at another
position to avoid a bend of a cable or a position
where installation is difficult. Generally speaking,
all the waterproof labels should be attached neatly
and consistently.
Both ends of a cable near connectors should be
attached with waterproof labels, and the silkscreen
on the label should be in consistent with the
corresponding cable. For details, see the preceding
figure.
