Make the testing and labeling processes easier, faster, and safer than ever.
Brother iLink&Label
Meet your easy on-the-job workflow solution for large network labeling projects. The Brother iLink&Label app lets you download cable identifiers directly from Fluke Networks LinkWare™ Live and wirelessly send them to the Brother PT-E550W label printer – helping save time, reduce errors, and amplify productivity.
Filter & sort
Easily locate the identifiers you need with six different options for organizing and viewing your data.
Nearly unlimited identifiers
Download all the identifiers you need – without worrying about limitations or added fees.
Advanced project control
Allow your project manager to share the appropriate subsets of cable IDs or project data with individual subcontractors.
Global availability
Use iLink&Label on all of your network labeling projects – within the U.S. and around the world.
Project managers
In the office, the project manager uses Excel or CAD to plan the network infrastructure, then uploads cable and component identifiers, as well as detailed test settings for the job, to LinkWare Live.
Contractors & subcontractors
On the jobsite, the contractor or subcontractor uses iLink&Label to download a complete group or just a subset of cable identifiers to their smartphone or tablet, then sends them to the Brother PT-E550W labeling tool.
Testing technicians
Also on the jobsite, the testing technician downloads the project test settings and IDs from LinkWare Live into the Versiv™ tester, then uploads results back to LinkWare Live as tests are completed.

Meet the P-touch EDGE PT-E550W
iLink&Label was designed to work exclusively with the EDGE PT-E550W industrial labeler from Brother. Ideal for complex IT network projects, the PT-E550W can wirelessly print wider labels (up to 24mm wide) ‒ including heat shrink tube – virtually anytime, anywhere, on any device.
The innovation of collaboration
iLink&Label is the result of a collaboration between Fluke Networks and Brother Mobile Solutions to marry industry-leading testing and label printing technology and create the new standard in datacom testing and labeling.
“LinkWare Live bridges the gap between the project manager’s office where the data for testing cables and printing labels originates and the jobsite where Fluke testers and Brother labeling tools are used by the installation crew. For network designers, integrators, and contractors, the iLink&Label app automates multiple workflow processes and will help eliminate a major pain point in jobsite productivity. More importantly, it ensures labeling accuracy across the entire project.”
