Methods and devices provide identification for telecommunications equipment by displaying identification information on a display screen proximal to the equipment. The identification information may be entered through a user input device such as a keypad or may be pre-stored in memory of the telecommunications equipment, such as through a network connection used to maintain the equipment. The identification information may include a unique name of the equipment and/or a description of the function that the equipment performs. A technician may then determine information about the telecommunications equipment by approaching the equipment and viewing the information on the display screen.
