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.

Paul Sternberg Interviewed by Chicago Agent Magazine

The Best Way to Handle Negative Online Reviews

HOUSTON, TX / ACCESSWIRE / September 20, 2021 / In the digital world we live in, a defamatory review can seriously harm any business. Defamation Attorney Paul Sternberg, out of Houston, Texas was recently interviewed for a piece in the Chicago Agent Magazine, Opinions are not defamatory, but facts are: How to fight back against a bad online review.

In that article, Sternberg discusses the detriment negative reviews can have on Real Estate Agents, but any entrepreneur or small business can be hurt by an angry customer venting on the internet.

Sternberg, who wrote the book, "The Guide to Internet Defamation and Website Removal," in 2019, has several go-to steps for addressing situations like these.

First, the problem needs to be understood. Why is the person leaving the negative review? Understanding the reason they left the review is the most important part of the process.

The second step would be to find the person, address the problem, and see if there is anything that can be done to resolve the situation. The internet is not as anonymous as some would believe and finding out who to contact is not usually a problem.

After trying to make amends, Attorney Sternberg suggests asking them if they would be willing to remove the negative review. If you can't come to an agreement, there are several other steps that can be taken.

Reach out to previous clients and ask them if they would be willing to leave a positive review. The more positive reviews a business has out there, the less likely people will notice or pay attention to the one negative review.

After taking a day or two to calm down, Sternberg's suggests responding publicly to the review. He says it is best to be honest while remaining professional. Apologize for the person's experience and thank them for their feedback, demonstrating that you would be willing to work with them in the future as a commitment to your willingness to improve.

He also suggests responding to the positive reviews to show that you are engaging and care about your clientele.

If the review is indeed defamation, there is an alternate route you can take. A cease-and-desist letter threatening a lawsuit can also be effective, Sternberg said -- but weighing the benefits versus the risks of a confrontation beforehand is crucial. The person may post more defamatory comments instead of stepping back from the situation.

Alternatively, you can reach out to the platform they posted the review on and ask them to remove it. Attorney Sternberg warns that due to federal laws, there is little legal recourse in asking an online platform to remove the review, but it is worth a shot.

If you act quickly and explain why you think the review is misleading, they may take your concern seriously and remove it, without even notifying the author - especially if it somehow violates their guidelines.

Sternberg, who can be reached at 713-392-4322, states that Regardless of the steps you decide to take, a negative review can be detrimental to your reputation and needs to be dealt with quickly and efficiently.
