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.

Career Gear Greater Houston (CGGH), which operates with four full-time staff members and numerous volunteers, will use the grant for operational and administration expenses as they re-hire staff to support Operation ReCOVery, a jobs program for people impacted by COVID-19 who are in need of immediate employment. The program includes virtual employment coaching and access to the internet at CGGH’s development center. The grant will also go toward increasing the funding of its SkillUp Entrepreneurship Incubator.

Over the last 10 years, CGGH has served more than 23,000 men and male youth on a journey toward economic independence. Last year, it helped 561 fathers, 322 veterans, 159 re-entry employees and 89 students.

The organization is based in the Greater Houston region and serves the Gulfton and Sharpstown neighborhoods, considered among the poorest areas in Houston.

Jamay Schardien, executive director of CGGH, said the PGP grant will help tremendously in continuing to develop the organization.

“There is a demand for community organizations to help families and individuals recover from the effects of the pandemic,” said Ms. Schardien. “With this grant, we will be able to expand our workforce to support these communities.”

Veritex Community Bank Community Development Officer Courtney Taylor said CGGH is making a positive difference.

“We applaud the work being done by Career Gear Greater Houston, and it’s an honor to partner with FHLB Dallas to fund this organization,” Ms. Taylor said.

For 2021, FHLB Dallas awarded $400,000 in PGP grants, and its members provided an additional $200,250 for an impact of more than $600,000 in its five-state District of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas.

“Veritex Community Bank and CGGH demonstrate the positive impact of community partnerships,” said Greg Hettrick, first vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “We value this opportunity to aid CGGH by multiplying Veritex Community Bank’s contribution for the benefit of those in need.”
