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.

JW Verzekeringen Expands Coverage Portfolio Tailored to Non Dutch Entrepreneurs

The Netherlands is a popular place for international entrepreneurs who want to build a business in a stable, innovation-friendly environment. With a strong economy, excellent infrastructure and a government that actively supports entrepreneurship, the country offers a solid foundation for starting or expanding a business. Whether you’re from within the EU or from outside Europe, the Dutch system provides clear legal and financial frameworks, streamlined registration procedures and access to a broad international market. However, setting up a business also means complying with Dutch laws and understanding your rights and responsibilities as a foreign entrepreneur. From immigration and permits to taxes and insurance, there are important rules and practical steps you need to be aware of before launching your venture.

Do you need insurance as a business owner?

If you start operating as a self-employed professional in the Netherlands, it’s important to consider business-related insurance. For example, if you use a vehicle for business purposes, you’ll likely need a proper zakelijke autoverzekering (business car insurance). This ensures you are covered for liability and damages while on the road, and it’s often a requirement if your business activities involve regular travel or transport.

Insuring a commercial van or company vehicle

Many entrepreneurs also drive a company van or delivery vehicle. In that case, you’ll need a separate policy tailored to commercial use. A bestelauto verzekeren (van insurance) offers coverage that matches the risks associated with transporting tools, goods or equipment. This is especially relevant for tradespeople, couriers or construction professionals who rely on their vehicle every day.

Who can start a business in the Netherlands?

Entrepreneurs from the EU, EEA or Switzerland can live and work in the Netherlands without needing a visa or residence permit. All you need is a valid ID or passport and registration with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce. If you’re from outside Europe, you’ll need a residence permit. The Dutch Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) assesses your application based on the business’s added value to the Dutch economy.

Start-up visa or self-employment permit

If your business idea is innovative, you may qualify for the Dutch start-up visa a one-year permit that gives you time to build your company with the support of a recognized facilitator. Alternatively, if you already have a solid business plan and experience, you can apply for a self-employment permit. This is evaluated on criteria such as your education, track record and potential to contribute to the economy.

Your obligations as an entrepreneur

As a self-employed person in the Netherlands, you must register your business with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KvK), file income tax and VAT returns, and take care of your own insurance and pension arrangements. This includes health insurance, liability insurance, and in many cases, disability or business interruption coverage. Unlike salaried employees, you are personally responsible for building financial security for the future including retirement savings and coverage in case of illness or accidents. You are also expected to set up clear contracts and general terms of service with your clients to avoid misunderstandings and legal issues. For many entrepreneurs, the official government platform business.gov.nl is a valuable starting point. It provides reliable and up-to-date information on all legal obligations, application procedures, and useful tools all conveniently available in English, and specifically aimed at foreign entrepreneurs looking to establish a business in the Netherlands.
