At work we use white plates/housings, white cable and jacks for voice, blue cable and jacks for data.

On my own jobs I typically use ivory plates/housings, ivory jacks for voice, and orange jacks for data.

At my college, they changed their specs every few years. At least you could tell how old the wiring was by looking at the plate.
