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.

EPC Groupe wins a strategic 5-year contract with the Montage Gold Group for the gold mining project in Koné, Ivory Coast

EPC Groupe (Euronext - EXPL) announces that its subsidiary EPC Côte d'Ivoire has signed, following an international tender, a major contract with a subsidiary of the Canadian group Montage Gold for the supply of explosives and mining services for the Koné project in Ivory Coast.

 

A LANDMARK MINING PROJECT IN WEST AFRICA

Considered one of the most ambitious gold projects in Ivory Coast, located in the Kani and Dianra departments in the north of the country, the Koné mine is part of the structural transformation of the Ivorian mining sector. The project aims to double the country's gold production to reach 100 tonnes per year by 2030. Beyond its contribution to the growth of the gold sector, the project will generate jobs, infrastructure, and knowledge transfer at the local level.

 

A STRUCTURING CONTRACT FOR EPC CÔTE D'IVOIRE

The collaboration with Montage Gold follows an international tender in which EPC Côte d'Ivoire was selected for its technical expertise, understanding of the local conditions, and ability to deploy innovative and reliable solutions while meeting the most demanding standards. To meet the needs of this project, EPC Côte d'Ivoire will implement a complete industrial set-up:

  • An on-site explosives production plant
  • 2 to 3 mobile manufacturing units for explosives (MEMU trucks)
  • A dedicated technical blasting team

The initial duration of the contract is set at five years starting July 1, 2026, covering both the preparation phase of mining operations and the first years of production.

 

RECOGNITION OF EPC GROUPE'S EXPERTISE

“Being chosen by Montage Gold for the Koné project is a strong recognition of our expertise and the reliability of our solutions. Beyond the technical dimension, this partnership illustrates our commitment to supporting the development of the Ivorian mining sector and contributing to the success of a project that will leave a lasting mark on the country's gold industry,” said Jean-Jacques Koua, Director of EPC Groupe's Africa operations.

With expected revenue of more than €5 million per year over the duration of the project, this contract strengthens EPC Côte d'Ivoire's position as a key partner for the extractive sector in West Africa. It also represents a significant growth driver for EPC Groupe, enhancing its international presence and supporting its development strategy in rapidly expanding markets.
