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.

CIOs Take Advantage of Technology Solutions to Improve Efficiency As Recession Risks Rise

In the face of recessionary concerns, CIOs say they are placing a higher value on technology that improves efficiency, reduces supply-chain difficulties, and boosts profits. Technology investment decisions are influenced by various variables, including economic conditions, inflation, and supply-chain uncertainties. According to Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. and Carhartt Inc., CIOs said solutions like improved planning, automation, and artificial intelligence might be leveraged to reduce supply-chain bottlenecks that hinder revenues.

From startup founders to investors and corporate executives, a new mindset is evolving in the digital industry that emphasizes efficiency and profitability. Supply-chain backlogs produce significant headaches for IT leaders and investors in the public and private sectors. This realization was made by Philip Burns, a New York-based Murray Hill Group Partner, after ordering a $5 million piece of semiconductor equipment with an 18-month lead time. According to Mr Burns, venture capital and private equity investor, profits will be difficult to attain in a weakening economy, and thus firms must minimize expensive delays, he said.

Tinto advises CIOs looking to reduce backlogs to concentrate on improving supply chain efficiency. To avoid delays, some CIOs plan and schedule purchases months or years in advance. For pharmaceutical equipment, such as workstations and PIN pads, Walgreens Boots Alliance CIO Francesco Tinto reports that delivery delays have grown from eight to sixteen weeks. He argues that a longer-term strategy is required. Since she took over as CIO two months ago, Katrina Agusti has been working to improve supply chain efficiency to reduce backlogs.

According to Agusti, Carhartt is investing in technology that improves supply-chain visibility. After increasing the organization’s monitoring of unusual occurrences, she wants to improve how the company monitors extraordinary situations more proactively. Carhartt has teamed up with Manhattan Associates, a transportation and warehousing firm, to accomplish that objective.

Agusti says Carhartt has also incorporated third-party logistical data into its systems as part of this process. The newly formed data science team will do future work to develop predictive models for predicting supply chain problems and evaluating possible mitigation measures, according to Ms Agusti.
