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.

New Graber UltraLite Lift System raises the bar on lifting and lowering window shades

By: via AccessWire

Feather-light operation lets customers control shade positioning from with ease and precision

MIDDLETON, WI / ACCESSWIRE / October 27, 2021 / Graber, a Springs Window Fashions company, has engineered a new and innovative lift system for their solar and roller shades that lets customers position a shade quickly, quietly and precisely, controlling light and privacy levels with only a gentle touch. The Graber UltraLite Lift System debuts today and is available exclusively through Graber dealers.

Previous industry-wide lift systems can be heavy or can be difficult to accurately position. The new system eliminates those concerns and is available in over 500 choices of designer fabrics and two lift control styles: an UltraLite Cordless Lift, featuring no visible cords, and a patent-pending hybrid system, UltraLite Dual Lift, ideal for tall or hard to reach windows. The dual lift version can be operated both cordlessly and with a beaded chain that raises the entire shade with one pull. Both systems allow customers to precisely position the shade- the first time, every time.

The industry-leading technology behind The Graber UltraLite Lift System was developed in-house by Graber and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty. Among its innovations:

  • UltraLite shades can be raised, lowered, and precisely positioned with the lightest touch-they're virtually weightless!
  • The UltraLite lift reduces friction making it whisper quiet
  • 33% narrower gap along shade edges than Graber's current cordless system for improved light control
  • Covers 60% more window sizes than the nearest cordless roller shade competitor
  • Hidden mechanics, and updated mounting hardware provide an elegant aesthetic

"Like all of our innovations, the development of Graber's UltraLite lift system was driven by customers," said Julia Dorn, Executive Director of Product and Portfolio Management "we are meeting a need by updating our previous jog-and-stop with dramatically lighter shades and precision placement that can cover virtually any window-and that's something the Graber UltraLite Lift System takes to a new level that our competitors simply can't match."
