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.

By: 3BL Media

SOURCE: T. Rowe Price

DESCRIPTION:

June 24, 2021 /3BL Media/ - Business Volunteers Maryland (BVM) and T. Rowe Price came together on June 23, 2021, to host skillCONNECT, a scope-a-thon supporting four Baltimore-area grassroots nonprofits focused on racial equity.

During skillCONNECT, teams of volunteers from T. Rowe Price worked with the nonprofits, bringing their expertise and ideas to help the organizations navigate business challenges related to strategic planning, finance, fundraising, human resources, marketing, and more.

The four nonprofits selected to participate, all of which were founded and are run by people of color, include:

  • Community Law in Action, an organization that develops young people to be leaders by connecting them to opportunities to amplify their voices, cultivate their skills, and actively participate in the process of positive community change.
  • The Food Project, an initiative of UEmpower of Maryland that brings culinary skills, job opportunities, sustainable food sources, mentorship, and hope to the youth of Southwest Baltimore.
  • Infinite Focus Schools, a nonprofit that seeks to reduce the impact of mental, emotional, and behavioral disorders for youth.
  • Parity Baltimore Inc., an equitable development company based in West Baltimore that acquires and rehabilitates abandoned properties by the block to create affordable homeownership opportunities as a means of social justice and wealth building.

BVM has facilitated numerous skillCONNECT events over the years, bringing the expertise of business professionals to nonprofit leaders facing business challenges.

This event represents a continuation of T. Rowe Price’s commitment to advancing racial equity in the community. Since 2015, the T. Rowe Price’s Foundation has granted $5.5 million in grants that support organizations focused on racial equity and racial justice. In addition, the firm committed $2 million in racial equity grants.

Terence Baptiste, skillCONNECT participant and senior legal counsel at T. Rowe Price
“I am interested in the skillCONNECT event because it gives me the opportunity to leverage my legal expertise to assist a nonprofit working for racial equity. I have been looking for opportunities the past few years to get more involved in my community to advance racial equity, but I have struggled to find my place since I don’t have experience in this area. Being able to assist an organization in this space using the skills that I have learned at T. Rowe Price is the opportunity that I have been looking for. During this event, I hope to be able to give a nonprofit actionable steps that will address the business challenges that they are facing.”
