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.

Trax Records The Iconic Label Delivers The Message: "Everything Is Possible" Randy Edelman Featuring Grandmaster Melle Mel and Announces The New Manager Of Rap & Hip House A&R

When the news of the recent controversy involving Grandmaster Melle Mel hit, many of Mel’s supporters wanted to give their opinions. There was no way they would allow cancel culture to tarnish his illustrious talent… Brace yourselves for the explosive collaboration between musical maestro Randy Edelman and the legendary Grandmaster Melle Mel. In celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of hip hop, Trax Records aims to remind the world of the powerful inspiration that a song can bring to the world. And who better to compliment these incredible talents than Rachael Cain, also known as Screamin Rachael, the unstoppable force behind Trax Records?

This collaboration is the perfect example of a full circle moment as Rachael and Melle Mel originally crossed paths at Sugarhill Records. Rachael fondly recalls Melle Mel advocating for her and demanding the respect she deserved, even while she was working with Afrika Bambaataa of the Zulu Nation at the time, on the first hip house record “Fun with Bad Boys”. That bond has stood the test of time, leading them to work together on various projects, including the recent hit single "Boom Goes My Heart," featured on the new Trax Records compilation "Star Trax.”

Most of Mel’s enormous fan base are not just famous rappers but also included genuine friends, and colleagues. Hold on tight because the surprises don't end there! It seems that Rachael's prayers were answered when Eileen Shapiro who works with the immensely talented  Edelman, a multiple hyphenated Golden Globe, BAFTA, Emmy-winning genius, gave her a call. It seems Randy was on the hunt for a rapper who could bring his magnificent song to life. And who could be a better fit than Melle Mel himself? His undeniable talent and ability to relate to the inspirational lyrics blew everyone away. When Mel first heard the song he was in awe of its greatness. Rachael passionately declares that Melle Mel is not just a rapper - he is THE greatest rapper that has ever graced the mic. His exceptional voice and brilliant songwriting skills leave no doubt in anyone's mind. While rap trends may come and go, Melle Mel remains an iconic figure and a living legend who is here to stay! This project captures the essence of friendship, truth, and the power of a single song to change everything. As the Grandmaster himself said, “One song can turn everything around”. 

Trax Records, known for delivering countless incredible hits in the realm of house music, believes that this collaboration will surpass all expectations, to become the greatest release the label has ever produced.

These days house and hip house are breaking into the mainstream, so there is a lot that Melle Mel’s talent and expertise can contribute to the Trax Records legacy going forward.

Therefore, the label has announced that Grandmaster Melle Mel will be the head of A&R for the new rap and hip-house division. Thankfully Mel graciously accepted this challenge to mentor new talent as well as bring forth classic rappers that might have been overlooked lately. On this 50th Anniversary of hip hop, Grandmaster Melle Mel will be moving forward into a new and an even more exciting chapter in his legendary life and career.
