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.

Azerbaijans National Science Team Wins First Place at the International APRSAF CanSat 2025 Competition

The National Science Team of Azerbaijan, established under the initiative and organizational support of the SPACE Academy of Azercosmos, has secured first place at the prestigious international competition “APRSAF CanSat 2025.”

The National Science Team of Azerbaijan, established under the initiative and organizational support of the SPACE Academy of Azercosmos, has secured first place at the prestigious international competition “APRSAF CanSat 2025.” The event was organized in collaboration with the Asia-Pacific Regional Space Agency Forum (APRSAF) and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).

Held on July 12–13 in Wakayama, Japan, the competition brought together student teams from across the Asia-Pacific region. Azerbaijan was represented by a team of four university students from different higher education institutions in the country, guided and mentored by an expert from Azercosmos.

As part of the challenge, each team was tasked with designing and launching a miniature satellite measuring no more than 124 mm in length68 mm in diameter, and weighing between 250–300 grams. The hands-on experience aimed to foster practical knowledge and engineering skills among the students.

Despite its small size, the device includes all key systems of a real satellite, such as power supply, communication, and sensors, but is used solely for educational and experimental purposes rather than orbital deployment. These compact satellites challenge students to apply theoretical knowledge in real-world scenarios, encouraging innovation under strict physical and technical constraints.

The goal of the CanSat project is to equip students with hands-on training in aerospace engineering, teamwork, programming, system design, and technology testing that simulates real-world satellite functions. The interdisciplinary nature of the project also cultivates critical thinking, leadership, and problem-solving skills—competencies highly valued in today’s global space industry. This format is especially popular in international space and engineering competitions, including those organized under APRSAF, and serves as a gateway for many students into careers in satellite development and aerospace research.

In addition to Azerbaijan, the 2025 competition featured teams from ChinaJapanThailand, and the Philippines, further demonstrating Azerbaijan’s successful integration into the Asia-Pacific space ecosystem.

This remarkable victory underscores Azerbaijan’s growing reputation in the fields of space explorationengineeringSTEAM education, and scientific innovation, and reflects the country’s expanding pool of highly skilled young professionals.

It is worth noting that during the 2024–2025 academic year, several international educational initiatives were successfully implemented as part of Azerbaijan’s ongoing collaboration with APRSAF and JAXA, coordinated through the SPACE Academy. These included the APRSAF Space Poster Contest, a seminar on space, aviation, and STEAM, and a space observation initiative. These programs not only promoted scientific literacy and creativity among school and university students but also facilitated cross-cultural exchange and global networking. 

Such international engagements continue to foster interest and knowledge among Azerbaijani youth in space sciences while further strengthening the country’s position on the global space stage.

The success of the Azerbaijani team is a testament to the long-term vision and strategic investment in space education by Azercosmos. Through initiatives like the SPACE Academy, Azerbaijan is not only nurturing future engineers and scientists but also positioning itself as a serious contributor to the international space community.
