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.

Carlisle Companies Announces Construction of New TPO Manufacturing Line

Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE: CSL) announced today that construction has begun on Carlisle Construction Materials’ (CCM) sixth TPO manufacturing line, which will produce the commercial roofing industry’s first 16-foot-wide TPO membranes. Located in Carlisle, PA, the new line will add to CCM’s industry-leading production capacity with the widest TPO sheets on the market. Consistent with Carlisle’s Vision 2025 strategy to invest in high-returning businesses, the new TPO line will support organic growth initiatives and also create jobs for the city of Carlisle and surrounding communities. The new line will begin production in early 2022.

The widest width TPO membrane in the market today is available in a 12-foot sheet and was introduced by Carlisle in 2001. Wider TPO membranes have been an ongoing customer request, particularly with the steady increase in adhered and induction welded assemblies. Contractors using CCM’s new 16-foot-wide TPO membranes can expect significant labor savings and improved installation quality, as there will be fewer rolls to handle, more than 25% fewer seams to weld, and less packaging waste to dispose of at the end of the project.

CCM created the first single-ply roofing membrane more than 50 years ago and in 1998 became the first manufacturer to build a dedicated TPO roofing membrane line. Since then, TPO has become the most widely used single-ply roofing membrane in the world and remains the fastest-growing segment of the commercial roofing industry. Carlisle’s other TPO innovations include TPO with APEEL™ Protective Film, and TPO with Self-Adhering Technology.

Chris Koch, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am extremely pleased to announce this investment in CCM, and in the city of Carlisle, demonstrating our continued commitment to be a leading supplier of innovative products for energy-efficient buildings and to deliver the premium Carlisle Experience to our customers. Today’s announcement confirms Carlisle’s position as a leading building products company.”

CCM President Nick Shears said, “The new 16-foot TPO line is another important milestone in Carlisle’s century-long history of innovation. CCM has always focused on bringing innovations to the roofing industry because these products offer significant, strategic, and practical advantages for our customers. The new TPO line is reflective of CCM’s continuing investment in new products, our customers, and in the commercial roofing industry.”
