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.

ComEd Targets Reliability and Clean Energy Transition for 2022

Focus on continuous progress, value and affordability

The Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC), which regulates the state’s public utilities, today approved ComEd investments that enhance reliability and enable the transition to clean and renewable energy. The decision concludes an eight-month process in which the ICC, Illinois Attorney General and consumer groups reviewed ComEd’s actual costs for 2020 and power grid investments this year. The investment approval will result in an overall $46 million increase in rates that will add 16 cents to the average monthly bill for residential customers beginning in January and will be the first electric delivery rate increase in four years.

“ComEd is providing families and businesses industry-leading performance and smart investments will be key to meeting new customer expectations,” said Gil Quiniones, CEO of ComEd. “The power grid must be strong and resilient to withstand more frequent and severe weather events from climate change. We’ve received nearly 10,000 applications from customers this year to connect rooftop and community solar to our grid, at the same time demand for electric vehicles is growing. Our continuous improvement in performance and our smart investments means we can meet the needs of our customers while helping the state achieve its clean energy goals.”

ComEd’s average residential rates are among the most competitive in the nation. They are 17 percent lower than rates in the 10 largest U.S. metropolitan areas according to the most recent survey by the Edison Electric Institute. ComEd’s average commercial rates are 18 percent lower than rates in the top 20 largest U.S. metropolitan areas.

In January, ComEd residential customer bills will include an additional 29 cents per month on average for energy efficiency programs. ComEd’s average total residential customer bill will be about equal to what it was in 2008, in part because these successful energy efficiency programs have helped customers use less energy and produced $5.7 billion in total customer savings.

As a critical service provider, ComEd has programs and funding to support those who struggle to pay their bills. At the height of the pandemic, ComEd increased financial assistance funding by $9 million with the approval of the ICC, and as of November, ComEd has connected customers with over $138 million in assistance through state and federal programs. It also has provided hardship grants and assistance grants to small businesses.

ComEd is a unit of Chicago-based Exelon Corporation (NASDAQ: EXC), a Fortune 100 energy company with approximately 10 million electricity and natural gas customers – the largest number of customers in the U.S. ComEd powers the lives of more than 4 million customers across northern Illinois, or 70 percent of the state’s population.
