Accordingly, the computer system can assist in the tracking of assets represented by the cable providers or c

6、ompany owned reels as well as the inventory represented by the cable. This system can greatly facilitate the return of empty cable reels to minimize the charges imposed by the cable provider when specific cable reels are not returned within a specified time frame. This document specifically addresse

7、s the coding scheme for cable reel identification, the bar code representation of the data, and labeling requirements. These requirements were developed primarily for cable reels constructed of metallic materials and intended for use as returnable containers. ATIS-0300044 2 2 Normative References Th
