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.

Lafarge Tracks Clean Energy Initiatives and Success at Dawson Road Location

Lafarge Canada continues to demonstrate their commitment to keeping sustainability at the forefront of all its operations. Working with Efficiency Manitoba, Lafarge Canada’s Dawson Road location installed energy-efficient machinery and LED lights at the facility - saving nearly half a million kWh of electricity over five years.

This has been an important step towards the organization’s commitment to reduce climate-warming emissions. “As we work towards becoming a net-zero company by 2030, this is a key step in our journey and confirms Lafarge Canada’s long-standing commitment to sustainable development." says Tina Larson, Vice President of Manitoba & Saskatchewan. “The support of our government makes this a streamlined process.”

Efficiency Manitoba’s commitment to energy savings is well aligned with Lafarge’s.“Lafarge is an active participant in our energy efficiency programs.” adds Dirk Hantscher, Industrial Systems Engineer at Efficiency Manitoba. “We have worked together to identify and implement a variety of projects that reduce energy and save money.” Through consistent integration of energy-efficient technology, Lafarge has continued to demonstrate the importance of reducing energy consumption, receiving $395,689 from Efficiency Manitoba for their Manitoba operations, $216,499 specifically at Dawson Road. The kWh and m3 reduction from the upgrades at Dawson Road equate to saving approximately 726 tonnes of CO₂ - the equivalent of taking 158 cars off the road.

Lafarge’s upgrades translate not only to reduced energy use but an increase in production, supporting the employees and families that live and work in the greater Winnipeg area. The numbers across our operations prove to us that investing in energy efficiency is a simple methodology to cut energy waste,” explains Larson. “Modernizing the location’s machinery and lights has transformed it. We’ve learned a lot from these projects, and I can’t wait to see the improvements expand across our operations.”
