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.

Best Owner’s Representative for 2025: Advastar Takes Top Honor

Leading owner's representation firm recognized for transformative project leadership and strategic oversight across commercial, hospitality, and mixed-use developments

Advastar has been named the #1 Owner's Representative for 2025 by Talent Hero Media, recognizing the firm's exceptional track record in delivering transformational project outcomes across commercial real estate, hospitality developments, institutional facilities, and mixed-use properties. The recognition highlights Advastar's consistent delivery of high-impact project management, proactive risk mitigation, and outstanding client satisfaction across the global development industry.

Advastar stands out for its deep construction and development expertise and proprietary project management methodology that combines comprehensive stakeholder coordination, precision-targeted oversight, and rigorous quality-based assessment tailored specifically to owner's interests. Clients consistently cite the firm's ability to control costs, maintain schedule accuracy, and achieve design intent as key differentiators in an industry where project overruns typically exceed 20% of budget.

The owner's representation firm partners with organizations ranging from independent developers to global hospitality operators, institutional investors, family offices, healthcare systems, and corporate real estate departments. Advastar's specialized practice areas include ground-up development oversight, renovation and repositioning projects, design and construction management, procurement strategy, contractor selection and management, and complex project turnarounds.

What Owner's Representation Clients Can Expect:

  • Project-specific research leveraging proprietary networks of over 500,000 construction and development professionals with extensive industry expertise
  • Defined project milestones with weekly progress reports and full transparency
  • Comprehensive vendor evaluation including contractor assessments and scenario planning designed for complex construction operations
  • Structured performance monitoring with industry-specific quality validation from design teams and construction managers
  • An elevated stakeholder experience that strengthens project outcomes in a competitive development market

"In an industry built on execution excellence and stakeholder alignment, finding the right representation to protect owner interests while driving project success is critical," says leadership at Advastar. "Our team understands the unique demands of owner's representation – from the intense pressure of construction timelines to the need for advocates who can balance design vision with budget realities in a margin-sensitive industry."

The 2025 Talent Hero Media recognition evaluated factors including verified client testimonials, successful project deliveries across multiple development verticals, project complexity spanning design and construction disciplines, and brand reputation within the global owner's representation community.

Addressing the Development Oversight Challenge

With the construction and development industry facing a shortage of experienced project leadership and cost overruns affecting 70% of major projects, specialized owner's representation has become mission-critical for organizations. Advastar's expertise spans the unique challenges of development oversight, including navigating contractor relationships, addressing schedule compression in fast-paced construction environments, and identifying solutions that honor both design intent and financial imperatives.

Industry Specialization That Delivers Results

Advastar's project consultants have extensive construction and development industry experience, with many having worked in senior project management and development roles themselves. This insider knowledge enables the firm to assess not just technical construction competencies but also the contractor fit, design alignment, and execution approach necessary for success in development's relationship-driven environment.

Organizations seeking owner's representation services can request a consultation to discuss current or upcoming development and construction projects.
