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.

Susan G. Komen® Spotlights Experience of Living With Metastatic Breast Cancer; Dedicates Funds Raised Online This Week to Metastatic Breast Cancer Research

Week-long Focus in Honor of National Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day – Oct. 13th

Susan G. Komen®, the world’s leading breast cancer organization, today announced a week-long focus on metastatic breast cancer (MBC) to put a spotlight on the real lived experiences of those living with MBC. MBC, or Stage 4 breast cancer, is the most advanced stage of breast cancer, whereby the cancer has spread beyond the breast and nearby lymph nodes to other parts of the body (most often the bones, lungs, liver or brain). Most breast cancer deaths are a result of metastasis. As part of this week’s focus on MBC, Komen is dedicating funds raised through www.komen.org from Oct. 11 – Oct. 15 to fund research to better prevent, detect and treat MBC.

“We are committed to saving lives from breast cancer and that means we must continue to fund research into better ways to stop metastasis from happening,” said Paula Schneider, Komen’s president and CEO. “The hope for everyone touched by MBC is to live longer, which is why research is so important and every donation made to Komen makes a difference.”

The campaign, which is centered around National MBC Awareness Day on Oct. 13, includes a complete takeover of the organization’s blog, podcast and social channels to highlight five real stories that show some examples of the kinds of emotional, financial and physical strains that people living with MBC experience and how everyone living with MBC finds hope in research. The week will also highlight important legislation before Congress that would remove unnecessary delays in financial support from Medicare and Social Security Disability Insurance, which are often needed to help pay for treatment.

This year more than 44,000 people are expected to die from MBC in the U.S. alone. The majority of those with MBC were diagnosed and treated with early-stage breast cancer – sometimes years before – and then had a recurrence.

People with metastatic disease are living longer thanks to research that’s increased understanding of the disease and led to new and more-effective treatments. In the 1970s, for example, only about 10 percent of people survived five years after a diagnosis of MBC, now the 5-year relative survival rate is 28 percent

“There currently are no cures for MBC, which means at some point every treatment will eventually fail,” said Schneider. “Our goal is to continue to accelerate discovery so that there is always a next treatment available to stop a person’s cancer from progressing and to give them more moments with their loved ones.”

This year’s MBC week storytelling campaign across all of Komen’s platforms is made possible thanks to the support of: Amgen and Merck.
