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.

Linyi City, Shandong Province: “Sports+” Integration Stimulates New Vitality in Industry

Have you ever seen a soccer ball that can “fly”? On August 22, at the sixth Shandong Sporting Goods Exposition (hereinafter referred to as the “Sixth Shandong Sporting Expo”) held in Linyi, Du Chunkai, the technical director of Huamei Aviation Technology Co., Ltd., was demonstrating a youth drone soccer project to the audience. “In 2024, drone soccer will become an event in the National Games. By learning drone soccer, young people can not only cultivate an interest in aviation but also enhance their scientific literacy, effectively promoting the development of science education,” Du explained.

The deep integration of technology and sports is a major highlight of this year’s expo.

“Sports+Culture and Tourism” Deepens Integration of Sports and Cultural Tourism

The expo connected with Linyi’s high-quality cultural tourism resources, setting up an intangible cultural heritage exhibition area to promote traditional crafts like paper-cutting, sugar painting, willow weaving, and tie-dyeing. Collaborations with popular tourist attractions such as Lantern Mountain and New Langya offered discounts and hosted the “Good Luck Shandong” 2025 Shandong Sports Consumption Season and the Linyi Fashion Sports Festival, promoting deep integration of sports, culture, tourism, and commerce.

“Sports+Foreign Trade” Expands International Trade Pathways

Targeting the trend of “sports going abroad,” the expo hosted multiple international buyer matchmaking sessions and set up a display area for foreign trade products, gathering international e-commerce platforms like Russia’s Wildberries, Weijun International, and eBay to create a two-way bridge for businesses.
