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.

Hughes & Coleman Encouraging Cyclists to Take Precautions During Bicycle Safety Month

Hughes & Coleman office locations offer $5 CPSC certified helmets and fittings

BOWLING GREEN, KY / ACCESSWIRE / May 16, 2022 / The month of May marks National Bicycle Safety Month, and Hughes & Coleman Injury Lawyers is encouraging cyclists of all ages to take precautions to keep themselves and loved ones safe when riding their bikes.

With more than 12.4% of Americans cycling regularly, according to Statista, it's crucial to take safety precautions to prevent severe and even fatal injuries. To help keep kids and adults safe, all Hughes & Coleman Injury Lawyers offices in Kentucky and Tennessee offer $5 U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) certified helmets to community members. Hughes & Coleman covers a portion of the cost of each helmet in order to provide them to families at a discount. Additionally, Hughes & Coleman has team members trained to fit children and adults with the helmet size best suited for them at every office location. The $5 CPSC certified helmets and free fitting are available at all Hughes & Coleman office locations during regular business hours (8 a.m.-5 p.m.).

According to the National Transportation Safety Board, the most basic precaution to avoid injuries is wearing a properly fitted helmet, which reduces the likelihood of all head injuries by 48%.

"Helmets save lives. It's as simple as that," said Lee Coleman, co-founder, Hughes & Coleman Injury Lawyers. "According to the National Transportation Safety Board, 79% of fatally injured bicyclists were not wearing helmets. At Hughes and Coleman Injury Lawyers, we strive to protect all community members, so we are proud to provide certified helmets and offer fittings for anyone who comes into our offices."

The National Survey of Bicyclist and Pedestrian Attitudes and Behavior reports that 46% of cyclists have never worn a helmet. In Tennessee, cyclists under the age of 16 are required, by law, to wear a helmet. However, there are no universal laws requiring a helmet in Kentucky, and in Louisville, only those cyclists under 18 must wear one when riding in any Metro Park.

Kentucky and Tennessee both score poorly regarding overall safety and bike friendliness. In 2018, Kentucky ranked 43rd, and Tennessee ranked 25th in the annual Bicycle Friendly State ranking from the League of American Bicyclists. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) also reported that in 2018, there were as many as 857 bicyclists killed in traffic crashes in the United States.

As the temperatures rise and more cyclists hit the road for exercise and adventure, it's essential to not only wear a properly fitted helmet but also follow safety tips, such as:

  • Keeping your bicycle well-maintained, checking tire pressure, brakes, and lights
  • Using lights when out before the sunrise or after sunset
  • Using hand signals to communicate direction change
  • Wearing high-visibility clothing
  • Following the direction of traffic and avoiding lane splitting

Cyclists should also remember that state laws may have specific requirements regarding the use of bicycle lights. In Tennessee, bicycles are required to have a front white light visible from 500 feet and either a red reflector or a lamp emitting a red light visible from a distance of at least 500 feet. Similar laws apply in Kentucky.
