I got over this when I ran out of colours.

We also had colour coordinated cables for E1 or ISDN circuits, IP security cams', iSCSI circuits, voip, voip with data (tagged), analogue voice, workstations, switch trunks, servers, dmz hosts, enviro monitoring devices, device consoles etc.

There has been extensive arguing and ranting about this subject in past nanog threads.

We use red for workstations, green for DMZ, yellow for servers and grey for voice!
