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.

Schneider Electric Launches Advanced Electrical Design for Autodesk Revit Version 24.0 Delivering Enhanced Functionality, Greater Integration

By: AB Newswire
• Advanced BIM-based electrical design solution that empowers users to improve their electrical design workflows while increasing efficiency and accuracy all in a single tool

• New release with enhanced integrations developed through strategic alliance between Schneider Electric and Autodesk

BOSTON - June 16, 2023 - Schneider Electric, the global leader in the digital transformation of energy management and automation, today announced the launch of Advanced Electrical Design™ for Autodesk® Revit® (v24.0.0) offering more intelligent, unified, and connected workflows. This new feature-rich software will enable electrical engineers and designers to play a leading role in designing high performance buildings for the new energy landscape.

Schneider Electric formed BIM Electrical Corp. as result of its strategic partnership with Autodesk, a global leader in design and make technology, to bring this advanced BIM-based electrical design solution to market. This platform integrates directly with Revit, creating a more complete and robust BIM solution that connects teams, data, and workflows across the entire electrical and project lifecycle in a single tool.

BIM designs capturing the physical and functional characteristics of a facility have become increasingly important in the design, construction, and operation of infrastructure projects. As the need for greater efficiency, sustainability, and adaptability increases, integrated systems and workflows are critical to improving efficiency, reducing errors, and streamlining collaboration among various disciplines involved in a project. Advanced Electrical Design for Autodesk Revit (v24.0.0) provides a modern solution for solving these challenges, while meeting the needs of stakeholders from the initial design through the operation and management of that new facility.   

"Our expertise in the electrical distribution space is a natural complement to Autodesk's expertise, allowing us to create a partnership that truly empowers electrical engineers and designers," said Daniel Stonecipher, Vice President & Chief Product Officer – eCAD, Global Software Portfolio Leader, Schneider Electric. "Both Schneider Electric and Autodesk are among the top sustainable companies in the world, and sustainability is at the forefront all that we do. Together, through BIM Electric, we are driving long-term digital transformation solutions in the industry, providing greater value for companies and customers in the new energy landscape."

Advanced Electrical Design for Autodesk Revit (v24.0.0) allows users to plan, analyze, optimize, and document electrical plans all in a single place, with enhancements, including:

  • Enhanced Revit Integration – Import, link, sync and map
    • Import and convert a circuited Revit model into a fully functioning design model
    • Link AED components to Revit model elements to reconcile the electrical design model and the 3D model
    • Synchronize Revit's instance of electrical settings with AED automatically
    • Map parameters and synchronize data to bind Revit and AED parameters
  • Integrated Code Regulations – Save time and reduce errors
    • Ensure accuracy while reducing the time devoted to compliance with regional code-based calculations built into the software
  • Expanded Suite of Electrical Analysis Tools – Leverage data for effectively
    • Complete device and equipment load calculations, analyze power scenarios, and check voltage drops, generate load letters, view auto-generated cable data, and side conductors accurately
  • Improved Diagramming – Employ updated diagrams and easily transition between Single Line and Key Line views
    • Layout power sources and equipment loads, create pro-level single line diagrams, and transfer data automatically across Single Line or Key Line diagrams of the same electrical system
  • Critical Alerts & Warnings – Stay informed and compliant
    • Ensure your distribution system is properly circuited, review compliance warnings, and receive not modeled warnings


"By bringing together the full power of Autodesk Revit and the electrical experience of Schneider Electric, we can provide a solution that addresses the real challenges our customers face today," said Steve Butler, Sr. Manager, MEP Industry Strategy, Autodesk, Inc. "Advanced Electrical Design for Autodesk Revit demonstrates how Autodesk is leveraging strategic partnerships to enhance our platform and improve the experience for our users relying on Revit."
