# How to show Cable ID at both ends of the Connection?

* **Overview:**

The **Cable IDs at both ends** feature allows you to display the same Cable ID at both the starting and ending points of a cable connection in your drawing. This makes it easier to identify and trace cable connections between devices, especially in complex designs with multiple cables, improving drawing readability and simplifying cable management.
