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.

Hero Search-and-Rescue Dog “Crixus” Needs Community Support for Lifesaving Surgery Paws for a Cause: Help Heal a K9 Hero

ATLANTA, GA - September 10, 2025 - K9 Crixus, a decorated search-and-rescue dog with the Georgia Community Emergency Response Team (GA-CERT K9) and Redemption Road K9 (RRK9), has spent his career serving Georgia communities in their darkest hours. From reuniting missing loved ones with families to uncovering homicide evidence, his work has saved lives and brought closure across the state.

Now, this hero needs help of his own. After years of service, Crixus is battling severe hip and knee damage that requires urgent orthopedic surgery. Without it, he faces chronic pain and the loss of his ability to work—or even walk comfortably.

“Time and again, Crixus has answered the call,” said Dr. Shirin ben Shahor-Shoshana, President of GA-CERT K9. “He has found the lost, located victims, and stood by first responders when they needed him most. Today, we have the chance to stand by him.”

Service & Impact Highlights

  • April 2024 – Lawrenceville, GA: Reunited a missing person with their family after locating them in dense underbrush.
  • November 2024 – Lawrenceville, GA: Discovered a shallow grave, helping detectives identify a homicide victim.
  • December 2024 – Conyers, GA: Tracked and located a suicidal subject, earning the Hometown Hero Award for lifesaving service.
  • March 2024 – Anaheim, CA: Made history as the first working K9 panelist at WonderCon, presenting with RRK9 and GA-CERT K9 on the role of canine teams in search, rescue, and justice.
  • February 2025 – Putnam County, GA: Assisted investigators in the high-profile search for two missing Atlanta educators.
  • March 2025 – Twiggs County, GA: Area-searched 50+ acres, uncovering evidence that advanced a missing child case.
