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.

Board Courage in Advancing Workplace Equity a Critical Component of Resilient Companies

By: ACCESSWIRE

Committed board leadership even more necessary in the face of political opposition

WASHINGTON D.C. / ACCESSWIRE / February 1, 2024 / Tapestry Networks' Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity in Action (IDEA) initiative, in partnership with Syndio, hosted a national series of discussions that included 60 board directors and executives from more than 100 leading companies, government agencies and institutional investors, including the US Department of Veterans Affairs, BlackRock, Lockheed Martin, CIGNA, AIG, and Sony, exploring the essential role of board oversight in advancing workplace equity and DEI priorities. A new report synthesizes insights from those conversations and highlights the need for courageous leadership in push equity agendas forward. Respondents addressed the value of enhanced metrics, processes, and tools for assessing progress, and the importance of connecting equity initiatives with concrete business outcomes."Equity must be a business initiative with business value and business impact," one participant said.

Maria Colacurcio, CEO of Syndio, said,"Workplace equity isn't a checkbox - it's the heartbeat of a successful organization. Boards need to be the fearless champions pushing for progress, empowering HR leaders to embrace data, help leadership ensure accountability, and reframe this work as a business imperative." She added,"Top talent is looking for equitable pay and opportunity, and it's what regulators are requiring. Now is the time for boards to ensure commitments evolve into action, because the organizations that fail risk being left behind. Those that lead through this change, however, become the architects of a more inclusive - and prosperous - future."

Board leadership is essential for overcoming fear and resistance, while ensuring full integration of equity into business strategies. "Board pressure is a good way to motivate the executive team," said one director. While boards are committed to advancing workplace equity, they may lack the information and tools they need to make informed decisions and provide meaningful challenge to management."In the next 50 years, we will have five generations in the workforce, driven by global shifts in age, race, immigration, disabilities, gender, religion, and identity. Businesses cannot thrive without inclusive talent pathways," said Marsha Ershaghi Hames, Managing Director, Tapestry Networks.

The report unpacks several key findings, including:

  • Courageous board leadership is required to advance workplace equity in the face of social and political headwinds.
  • Tying equity initiatives more concretely to business objectives gives drives organizational commitment and overcomes resistance.
  • Boards and leadership teams may need to develop a common language to define, investigate, and advance workplace equity.
  • Oversight frameworks informed by data-driven metrics bring more clarity to oversight, enabling boards to define goals, benchmark their progress, and recognize areas of opportunity.
  • Board and leadership diversity continue to play a material role in promoting commitment to equity values, goals, and progress.
