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.

INTERNATIONAL TRADE ASSOCIATION ANNOUNCES SUPPORT OF TEXAS PROPOSITION 4





The More Than 200 Member Companies Also Back Passage as Water Loss Approaches Emergency Stage

IRVING, TX, September 10, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Plastics Pipe Institute, Inc. (PPI), the major trade association representing all segments of the plastic pipe industry, has endorsed Proposition 4, the November 2025 ballot measure that will provide long-term, dedicated funding for the Texas water infrastructure. The not-for-profit group also urges Texans to vote YES on Proposition 4 to strengthen the state's water systems and prepare for the future.

"Texas leaders took the proper first step by passing legislation to address our state's growing water challenges," said David M. Fink, president, PPI. "By advancing Proposition 4 to the voters, the Legislature and Governor Abbott have shown foresight and responsibility in ensuring Texas is prepared for both population growth and recurring drought. I don't think that ever before in our association's 75-year history have we seen such a dire situation.

"Plastic piping is a proven solution to help Texas achieve the goals of Proposition 4," Fink continued. "Those systems reduce water loss, especially in seismically sensitive areas, resist corrosion and last longer than traditional materials — meaning less taxpayer money spent on repairs and more water delivered where it's needed. There's also another environmental benefit. Millions of pounds of recycled materials are used, for example, to manufacturer large diameter corrugated stormwater drainage pipe. Our members are committed to sustainability and innovation," Fink continued, "and many are already leading the way in recycling, material recovery, and product design to support circularity.

"PPI and our members are ready to help expand this proven technology in Texas," he summed up, "ensuring that every dollar invested through Proposition 4 builds infrastructure that is durable, efficient, and sustainable for decades to come."
