Heat shrink would require that I label them before crimping the plug on the end, and I am not that organized.
Unless the shrink ratio is such that you can slip the label over the plug. Even so, I am often labeling cables that are already plugged in. And if the objective is to label the cables outdoors in the middle of the cable somewhere, I don’t see how you use tubing. At that point I’d go with colored electrical tape or those ziptie tags that you write on with a Sharpie. I have some enclosures with a chart taped inside the door with stuff like AP1 north – 1 blue, AP2 east – 2 blue, 11 GHz backhaul – 1 orange. The cables have RHINO flexible nylon labels inside the enclosure, but outdoors just the tape we used to label the cables while pulling them.
