About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

A Living Buddha in Texas? How a Rare Female-Led Monastery is Quietly Redefining the Spiritual Retreat





Universal Door Meditation Center (Thiền Viện Phổ Môn) in Sugar Land Offers the Public a Rare Glimpse into Real-World Awakening, Led by Zen Master Thich Dieu Thien

SUGAR LAND, TX, May 31, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- As wellness culture continues to saturate our screens with curated retreats and surface-level serenity, a hidden sanctuary just outside Houston offers something far more radical: the path to true inner transformation, guided by one of the world's few awakened
female Zen Masters.

At Universal Door Meditation Center in Sugar Land, spiritual seekers encounter more than meditation—they step into the presence of Zen Master Thich Dieu Thien, a Vietnamese-born teacher recognized by students worldwide as a modern-day living Buddha. This monastery isn't a fantasy escape, it's an invitation to return fully to your life, awakened and unbound.

"Each person is a droplet of water, flowing together like a river," shares Awakened Zen Master Thich Dieu Thien. "The river finds its way back to the Source, flowing into the immense Ocean."

Here, ancient Zen teachings are not studied; they are lived. From walking and sitting meditations to eating, movement, speaking, and even dishwashing, every action becomes a portal into the Unborn Mind, a clear, awakened presence untouched by stress, identity, or time.

Youth & Teen Awakened Meditation Retreat: June 16–20, 2025
As the need for mental clarity and emotional resilience grows among younger generations, Universal Door Meditation Center will host a 5-day Awakened Meditation Summer Retreat for Youth & Teens (Ages 10–18) from June 16–20. Under the guidance of Awakened Zen Master Thich Dieu Thien, participants will learn how to return to the Unborn Mind and liberate themselves from fear, anxiety, and stress, achieving true inner stability. This will enable them to reconnect with their capacity to live freely and meaningfully, without the constraints of performance or pressure. This immersive retreat, free from cell phones and electronics, is filled with profound realizations, reflection, and joy, offering a rare opportunity for youth to experience meditation in an awakened environment that resonates directly with their real-life experiences. A second session will also be held July 21–25.
Location: Universal Door Meditation Center, 15202 Dora Lane, Sugar Land, TX 77498
Fee: $500 – Includes meals and accommodations.
RSVP: (281) 565–9718 | Flyer Available Here (http://universaldoormeditationcenter.org)
