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.

UK Students Challenged To 'Improve Life at Home' With Ideas To Make Appliances More Sustainable for People and for the Planet

By: 3BL Media

SOURCE: Whirlpool Corporation

DESCRIPTION:

Whirlpool Corp.’s vision is “to improve life at home,” which includes care for the planet that everyone lives on. With this in mind, the company has recently launched a new campaign called “Purposeful Innovation,” which aims to inspire the next generation to develop sustainable kitchens of the future.

The World of Whirlpool showroom in Peterborough, UK hosted the official launch of the campaign in April, which tasked secondary school students from aged 11-14 to re-design a popular appliance to be more environmentally friendly.

Almost sixty students from across Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, and Lincolnshire attended the launch. On the day, Whirlpool Corp. engineers, product designers, and trainers deconstructed appliances to demonstrate the technologies behind them and their environmental impacts. Students also had the opportunity to learn about consumer motivations and purchasing factors when it comes to kitchen appliances and sustainability.

The students will now work together in teams of five to redesign either a tumble dryer, washing machine, or fridge freezer over the course of eight weeks. The redesigned product must reduce energy, water, or food waste and be manufactured in a more eco-friendly way.

The live final will take place at the WoW (World of Whirlpool) at the end of June, where the winning team will receive a new kitchen appliance for their school, and each member of the winning team will also win a new appliance for their home too. The winners and runners-up will also get to go on an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour at Whirlpool Corp.’s Yate factory in Bristol, which manufactures half a million dryers for UK homes every year. Additional prizes will be awarded for a range of other skills demonstrated during the competition, such as teamwork, creativity, sustainable innovation, and ingenuity.
