To the thread opener and all that reacted with a thumbs up: I wonder how you would visualise that. Let's say, we've got a 48-port switch with a hundred tagged and untagged VLANs spread all over the ports. How could this look like?
And that's just a small part of all ports and VLANs.
I can only image to somehow integrate the information into the mouseover popup text. But visualising all VLANs seems to be impossible to me.
I'm looking forward to your suggestions.

As our internal documentation we will like the second option you showed, the tag in the cables. But this is a mess when you have a lot of cables.
This is an example of our diagrams, but if you think with more cables, this is unmanageable.
The best approach will be to put the information in the popup, something like:
Cable between
SwitchCore1 [Gi01]
SwitchAccess55 [Gi24]
VLANs: 5U, 11-18T, 20T

The intention of these pictures was to show that it is not a good idea at all.

Correct. That doesn't scale at all.

I don't agree, because this doesn't scale either. You've got a maximum of 4 VLANs in your example, which is not even close to the real world. Besides, a VLAN is never bound to a cable, but to an interface. I think it's a very bad idea to display it differently. No one could tell if the VLANs belong to termination A, B or both. If you remove the cable, there are no VLANs anymore. That's against NetBox' philosophy of reflecting the real world.
