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.

The Promise and Progress of Renewable Diesel

By: 3BL Media

Renewable diesel can bridge the gap as we work to electrify transportation

SOURCE: Booster Fuels

DESCRIPTION:

Even with electric vehicles (EVs) on the horizon, the greatest barrier to decarbonizing the transportation sector, particularly in the last mile, is clean energy infrastructure. While we all want to see more EVs on the road, today and for many years to come, charging infrastructure will limit the adoption of electric vehicles, even with new electric vehicles available for retail and fleet customers to purchase.

According to Booster, the leading mobile energy provider, one of the most effective ways for fleets to decarbonize their vehicles right now is to make the transition to renewable diesel.

What is Renewable Diesel?

At its core, renewable diesel is a direct substitute for diesel fuel and is refined from lower carbon and renewable sources, including vegetable oils and waste cooking oils. Renewable diesel can deliver up to 80% lower lifecycle emissions compared to petroleum diesel. Other benefits renewable diesel can provide fleets include better vehicle performance, reduced maintenance, cleaner fuel burning, and no odor. In short, it provides emissions reductions and better performance for fleet customers right now, if they can access it.

The Booster Solution

Today, less than 2% of gas stations carry sustainable fuels, presenting a supply chain issue for fleets to adopt renewable diesel directly from gas stations. To increase renewable diesel adoption with fleet customers, the opportunity lies with connecting with them directly and removing the burden of multiple trips to the gas station. Booster’s advanced platform meets the fleets where they are, simplifying the energy supply chain to deliver renewable energy from the producer directly to the customer.

Fleets behave differently from consumer vehicles. Fleet vehicles cluster at night during their downtime, they drive in predictable routes, and are more likely to be connected to telematics to optimize their routes. Fleet operations present a huge opportunity to decarbonize last-mile travel, if their fueling is optimized to meet them where they are and take advantage of renewable diesel.

Rapid Renewable Diesel Growth in California

In late 2021, Booster began carrying renewable diesel products, and by the end of November that year, Booster converted half of its fleet customers to renewable diesel in California. Today, Booster’s advanced technology and energy delivery platform has helped convert more than 60% of its customers to renewable diesel, delivering more than 200,000 gallons of renewable diesel to more than 1,400 vehicles in California, cutting CO2 emissions by more than 500,000 lbs. of CO2 every week. In the Bay area alone, Booster has converted 95% of its customers to renewable diesel.

Preparing for the Future

Renewable diesel presents a compelling and viable path to cutting carbon at the last-mile level now. As clean energy infrastructure matures and expands over the next decade, Booster’s energy agnostic Unified Energy Network will be ready to deliver clean energy and further decarbonize the transportation sector through electrification, hydrogen and other clean energies.
