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.

Copia Power and Arizona Public Service (APS) Enter Into 20-Year Power Purchase Agreements for Large-Scale Solar and Storage Energy Campus

PHOENIX, ARIZONA / ACCESS Newswire / January 17, 2025 / Copia Power ("Copia") today announced the execution of two Power Purchase Agreements ("PPAs") with Arizona Public Service Company ("APS") for Phase I and Phase II of the Maricopa Energy Center project ("Maricopa"), a 550 MW solar energy generating facility and 2,200 MWh battery energy storage facility located in Maricopa County, AZ. The project is scheduled to reach commercial operation in multiple phases between 2026-2027. Once operational, Maricopa will be the single-largest solar and energy storage project in Arizona.

"We are proud of the Maricopa project. Copia works hard to deliver large projects at key locations on the grid to utilities and other customers," said Bryan Bradshaw, Managing Director and Head of Energy Markets for Copia Power. "We appreciate the opportunity to work with APS as they add significant volumes of renewable energy and storage capacity to their portfolio to meet the growing demand for power in Arizona."

Together with Copia's Harquahala Sun 2 project, the PPAs announced today for Maricopa bring the total volume of long-term supply agreements between APS and Copia to 850 MW of solar and 3,400 MWh of storage capacity, while bringing Copia's total contracted and in-construction portfolio in Arizona to 1,500 MW of solar and nearly 4,500 MWh of storage capacity.

"As we continue to plan for Arizona's growing energy demand, solar plus battery storage projects, like the Maricopa Energy Center, will help increase the amount of renewables on our electric grid and strengthen our ability to serve customers with power from the sun even when it is not shining," said Brian Cole, APS Vice President of Resource Management. "APS recently secured its largest-ever energy supply and the Maricopa project is one of the many resources in this portfolio that will help us continue to deliver reliable, affordable and increasingly clean electricity."

Maricopa is the latest phase to start construction in Copia's large-scale Harquahala energy campus in Maricopa County, about 50 miles west of Phoenix. The Harquahala campus, located next to the APS-owned Delaney substation, totals more than 25,000 acres and is designed to support more than 3,000 MW of energy generation and enable significant industrial load. Copia started construction on the initial phases in 2023 with the Harquahala Sun 1 (150 MW solar) and Harquahala Sun 2 (300 MW solar and 1,200 MWh storage) projects, which are scheduled to reach commercial operation in early 2025.
