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.

AVANGRID Earns WELL Health-Safety Rating for 17 Workspaces

Company’s WELL Health-Safety Rated workspaces cover more than 80% of employees

Ratings demonstrate AVANGRID’s commitment to health and safety and establishing safe re-entry procedures for its workforce during the pandemic

AVANGRID, Inc. (NYSE: AGR), a leading sustainable energy company, has met a major milestone in the pursuit of building safe and healthy workplaces for its employees. The company is now WELL Health-Safety Rated across 17 of its workplaces, covering more than 80% of its employees. This achievement marks AVANGRID’s ongoing efforts to support healthy workspaces and create safer re-entry for its workforce during the COVID-19 pandemic. The evidence-based, third-party-verified rating focuses on operational policies, maintenance protocols, stakeholder engagement and emergency plans.

Last year, AVANGRID became the first energy company to earn the WELL Health-Safety Rating through the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI) for AVANGRID’s headquarters in Orange, Connecticut, and the new Rochester Gas and Electric (RG&E) headquarters space in Rochester, New York. AVANGRID has now received the WELL Health-Safety Rating across 15 additional workplaces: nine RG&E and New York State Electric & Gas (NYSEG) workspaces in New York, three Central Maine Power (CMP) workspaces in Maine, one Berkshire Gas workplace in Massachusetts and two workspaces in Connecticut, including one for Connecticut Natural Gas (CNG) and one for United Illuminating (UI).

The WELL Health-Safety Rating includes thorough review of areas such as cleaning and sanitization procedures; emergency preparedness; health service resources; operational management and stakeholder engagement.

“As we continue to plan for responsible re-entry to bring us all back together, it is critical to create sustainable and healthy spaces where employees feel safe,” said AVANGRID Vice President of General Services Miguel Angel Garcia Tamargo. “The WELL Health-Safety Rating truly demonstrates our commitment to following the guidance of health experts and taking meaningful steps to create safe environments for our workforce.”

"We have seen an enormous uptake in the WELL Health-Safety Rating, with over 2 billion square feet of real estate enrolled globally," said Jessica Cooper, chief commercial officer at IWBI. "AVANGRID's continued adoption of the rating across its portfolio demonstrates leadership in the energy sector, as well as a continued commitment to employee health and well-being."

The WELL Health-Safety Rating serves as a centralized source and governing body to validate efforts made by owners and operators. It leverages insights drawn from the IWBI Task Force on COVID-19, in addition to guidance on the spread of COVID-19 and other respiratory infections developed by the World Health Organization (WHO), U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as well as global disease control and prevention centers and emergency management agencies. Guidance from recognized standard-making associations such as ASTM International1 and ASHRAE2, and leading academic and research institutions, as well as core principles already established by IWBI’s WELL Building Standard, also contribute to this premier framework for advancing health in buildings and spaces of all kinds.
