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.

30 Winners of 2022 Retool Your School Campus Improvement Grants Announced

By: 3BL Media

SOURCE: The Home Depot

DESCRIPTION:

The Home Depot launched the Retool Your School program 13 years ago to provide support for our nation’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). As of 2022, The Home Depot has invested more than $5.25 million dollars to update and upgrade HBCU campuses. 

“Grants from The Home Depot have helped HBCUs make more than $5 million worth of improvements, including the creation of outdoor eco-classrooms, renovation of health facilities, revamping of residence halls and more,” says Home Depot’s Chief Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Officer Derek Bottoms. “Through Retool Your School, we’ve provided support to nearly 70 percent of the nation’s HBCUs.”  

For the first time since 2019, the Retool Your School winners’ ceremony took place in-person as a live-streamed hybrid event on Tuesday, April 26. HBCU alumni attended to celebrate the event, including:  

  • Host Laz Alonso, Howard University Alumnus and actor 
  • Guest Speaker Terrence J., North Carolina A&T Alumnus, actor, model and entertainment reporter 
  • DJ Stormy, Alabama State University Alumna and international DJ  

HBCU winners received individual campus improvement grants ranging from $20,000 to $75,000. The Campaign of the Year award will provide a $45,000 grant for the most engaging marketing campaign, as voted on by The Home Depot marketing leadership. 

“With nearly 10 million votes counted, we were thrilled to meet the HBCU representatives in person this year and come together to celebrate the power of this community,” says Tiffany Mitsui, the multicultural marketing lead at The Home Depot. “I couldn’t be more proud of all the hard work our HBCUs did to get here!”
