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.

Wireless Customers Experience Fewer Streaming and Data Problems as Device Usage Soars, J.D. Power Finds

Verizon Wireless Delivers Best Network Quality Across All Six U.S. Regions

The average U.S. wireless customer now spends 110 minutes per day using their phone, a 5-minute increase from January of this year. Despite the increased usage on everything from streaming audio to browsing content to gaming, the J.D. Power 2021 U.S. Wireless Network Quality Performance Study℠—Volume 2, released today, finds that data and streaming problems have decreased.

“It’s no surprise that customers are spending more time than ever on their phones, but the fact that this increase is occurring without a corresponding increase in cited network quality problems is an encouraging development for the industry,” said Ian Greenblatt, managing director at J.D. Power. “Ultimately, what we’re seeing is a combination of improvements from carriers and manufacturers and an increasing level of sophistication among consumers when it comes to getting the most from their wireless devices.”

Study Results

Verizon Wireless ranks highest in all six regions evaluated in the study, achieving the fewest network quality problems per 100 connections (PP100) in call quality; messaging quality; and data quality in the Mid-Atlantic, North Central, Northeast, Southeast, Southwest and West regions.

See the rank charts for each region at http://www.jdpower.com/pr-id/2021075.

The 2021 U.S. Wireless Network Quality Performance Study—Volume 2 is based on responses from 32,403 wireless customers. Carrier performance is examined in six regions: Mid-Atlantic, North Central, Northeast, Southeast, Southwest and West. In addition to evaluating the network quality experienced by customers with wireless phones, the study also measures the network performance of tablets and mobile broadband devices. The study was fielded from January through June 2021.
