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.

Red or Green? A New Mexico Love Story

A Tale as Old as Time - A Forbidden Pairing, or the Perfect Match?

ALBUQUERQUE, NM / ACCESS Newswire / September 16, 2025 / Red or green? It is a question that has been pondered for the past 400+ years. In 1996, it was anointed as New Mexico's "Official State Question." In the middle of this answer is ‘New Mexico Certified Chile™.' The New Mexico Chile Association doesn't pick favorites, or even hint at taking sides. Knowing that "Love is a Choice," the organization just wants the question "red or green" to be asked and answered with New Mexico-grown chile varietals.

New Mexico's love story of "red or green" can be compared to other romances such as William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet or Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. It is a love story that some might see as the perfect example of how opposites attract (red or green) or the magic power of combining forces - mixing the green chile's spicy, fresh flavor with red chile's sweet yet hot taste (‘Christmas'). On the other hand, some see the two as a forbidden pair that must be forever kept apart.

The red and green chile are borne of different varietals, their worldview informed by different backgrounds. In New Mexico, the NuMex 6-4 is a thick-walled green chile pepper known for its enhanced flavor and consistent heat, grown predominantly in the Hatch region. Conversely, red chile peppers may be of the Chimayó variety, cultivated in Northern New Mexico. The mature red pepper provides a complex, slightly sweet and smoky flavor.

"It is indeed like a dynamic love story, the red and green chile," said Kari Dominguez, executive director of the New Mexico Chile Association. "I think all New Mexicans can agree that they enjoy the ‘battle' between the red and green chile and the interplay between the two. Of course, at New Mexico Certified Chile, we can't play favorites. We're proud of both for their unique contributions to New Mexican culture, our communities, and our taste buds. And when in doubt - Christmas!"

Like the tug-of-war of any relationship, many chile-lovers are prepared to dig their heels in when it comes to the ‘Red or Green' question, and for good reason. There are distinct differences between the red and green chile that make them both special - differences primarily centered around their maturity and spiciness.

If left to mature on the plant, green chiles will eventually turn red. Green chiles are the key ingredient to the famous New Mexican Green Chile Stew that brings a bright, herbaceous flavor with moderate heat. On the other hand, red chiles are more mature and contain more capsaicin, which gives them more heat and makes for a hearty, New Mexico Red Chile Sauce.

Red, green, or Christmas - one thing is certain: New Mexico Certified Chile is here to stay as a hallmark of New Mexican heritage and culinary authenticity. The love story of the red and green chile is one that people can cherish - and debate - now and in the future.
