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.

Horizon Therapeutics plc Partners with the Doug the Pug Foundation and Sing Me A Story Foundation to Bring Awareness to Rare Diseases Impacting Children through #RAREis Playlist

-- The original song inspired by a creative story written by Leanor, a 7-year-old who lives with a rare pediatric cancer --

-- The Doug the Pug and #RAREis Playlist music video will premiere Feb. 17 on the Doug the Pug and the Doug the Pug Foundation Instagram pages --

Horizon Therapeutics plc (Nasdaq: HZNP) today announced a new partnership with nonprofits the Doug the Pug Foundation and Sing Me A Story Foundation through the company’s #RAREis Playlist program, to amplify the voices of children with rare diseases through storytelling and song.

According to the National Institutes of Health, a rare disease is any condition affecting fewer than 200,000 people, and of the about 7,000 known rare diseases, about 80% are genetic and about half appear in children. The #RAREis program provides individuals and families impacted by rare diseases access to resources that connect, inform and educate as they navigate their daily lives.

Leanor was selected by the Doug the Pug Foundation – which works to bring joy and needed support to children and their families battling cancer and other life-threatening illnesses – to virtually meet Doug the Pug and his humans, Leslie Mosier and Rob Chianelli. As songwriters themselves, Leslie and Rob used Leanor’s story as inspiration to create a special song through the #RAREis Playlist, “The Quest for the Golden Pearl.”

Diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer that affects only 200 kids and young adults in the United States annually, Leanor has gone through aggressive treatments including chemotherapy. In 2020, she had surgery to remove the tumor and her left tibia, and had her right fibula relocated as an autograft at the Peyton Manning Children's Hospital. Today, Leanor is doing well after successful treatment.

“For Leanor to have this opportunity to see a story she and her sister wrote come to life by her favorite pug celebrity is magical,” said Aimee F., Leanor’s mother. “Her story is just like her, full of imagination and a bright light of happiness.”

The Doug the Pug Foundation is focused on bringing joy and emotional support to children battling life-threatening illnesses, outside of their treatment.

“Doug has a special way of putting a smile on people’s faces and that’s why we launched the Foundation because bringing joy to kids like Leanor, and allowing them to explore their own creativity, is so special,” said Leslie Mosier, songwriter and human to Doug the Pug.

“Leanor’s song featured in a unique social media challenge and the partnership with the Doug the Pug Foundation provides a platform to give voice to children living with rare diseases,” said Matt Flesch, vice president, communications and patient advocacy, Horizon. “Since 2017, Horizon’s #RAREis program has grown from a social media campaign to a multifaceted platform elevating stories like Leanor’s through personalized, creative formats like this song.”

The #RAREis Playlist program, founded by Horizon in partnership with Sing Me A Story in 2018, features more than 50 stories written by children impacted by rare diseases and accompanying songs created by musical artists.

To hear Leanor’s story, visit the RAREisPlaylist.com website. #RAREis will launch the full music video on Feb. 17 and will kick-off a special social media challenge on Feb. 20 with Leanor’s song from Doug the Pug’s Instagram page @itsdougthepug and the Doug the Pug Foundation’s Instagram page @dougthepugfoundation.
