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.

Darlene Gaston’s Time To Really Live Free Recognized as a Finalist in International Book Award Contest

Time To Really Live Free by Darlene Gaston is recognized for its outstanding writing, design and overall market appeal out of thousands of books submitted into the Book Excellence Awards.

Darlene Gaston is a multiple award-winning Christian author whose powerful message of grace is transforming hearts and minds.

At forty-seven, while serving as a prophet in her church, she experienced a profound revelation of God’s grace through the New Covenant—an awakening that radically transformed her life and inspired her books: Time to Really Live Free and The Door is Open. Her work, known for its authenticity and depth, draws from the original Greek and Hebrew scriptures to challenge religious legalism and illuminate the Apostle Paul’s spiritual evolution. Her credibility shines with prestigious Christian nonfiction awards from Pinnacle, Readers' Favorite, International Impact, and Book Excellence.

Living in Sparks, NV, with her husband Bryan, Darlene remains rooted in her community. Her experience—shifting from condemnation to freedom—offers readers a path to spiritual growth, establishing her as a trusted voice in the genre.

This one-on-one interview shares Darlene’s background and experience writing Time To Really Live Free.

Tell us about Time To Really Live Free.

In Time to Really Live Free, I share my journey of abandoning legalism to fully embrace God's grace.

For years, I believed I was living “free in Christ,” but in truth, I was burdened by guilt, shame, and a constant need to perform—for God, for others, and for myself. One day, as I revisited the story of the adulterous woman brought before Jesus, I found myself asking again: How could He tell her to “go and sin no more?” My life didn’t reflect that kind of freedom. That moment marked the beginning of a four-year journey where God gently unraveled the old religious “truths” I’d learned and replaced them with His truth—rooted in grace, not performance.

In the book, I share the questions, struggles, and breakthroughs that helped me finally understand what it meant to live under the New Covenant. Through personal anecdotes and biblical insights, my goal is to inspire readers to release fear and guilt, foster a deeper, more authentic relationship with God, and ultimately, live a liberated and fulfilling life.

What inspired you to write Time To Really Live Free?

The inspiration to write Time to Really Live Free came from a deep desire to share the newfound freedom I was experiencing with others. As I began to truly experience God’s grace—free from the guilt, fear, and condemnation that had defined so much of my faith—I felt called to share that freedom with others. I wanted to offer a clear, step-by-step path through what God had revealed to me, so others could move beyond performance-based faith and discover the vast, open space of God's love and grace.

How did you feel when you found out you received a Book Excellence Award?

I’m deeply honored to have been named a Book Excellence Award Finalist in Christian Nonfiction. This recognition elevates my voice in a powerful way, helping my book reach a wider audience seeking freedom, grace, and spiritual growth. The Book Excellence Awards are known for spotlighting exceptional books that make a meaningful impact, and being included among such distinguished authors is both humbling and inspiring.

How did your background and experience influence your writing?

At thirty, I accepted God's free gift, and soon after, church leaders began calling me a prophet.By forty-seven, while serving as a prophet in my church, God opened my eyes to grace, but when I shared this with leadership, it was met with resistance.

That moment became a catalyst.

I turned to writing as a way to give voice to what I could no longer keep silent—to reach those hungry for truth, freedom, and a deeper experience of God’s love beyond religious boundaries.

What is one message you would like readers to remember?

If there’s one message I hope readers carry with them, it’s this: true freedom in Christ doesn’t come from striving, rule-keeping, or trying to earn God’s love—it comes from embracing His grace.

Like Paul in Galatians 2:19–21 (MSG), I discovered that living by performance-based religion only leads to exhaustion and disconnection. When I stopped trying to impress God and others, and allowed Christ’s life to live through me, everything changed. My ego quieted, my spirit awakened, and I finally understood what it meant to live free.

This book is my invitation to others to step out of religious pressure and into a deep, grace-filled relationship with God. I dedicate it to those who’ve gone before, walked alongside me, and will come after—real people living out real faith. You are the true church, and I’m honored to walk this journey with you.
