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.

  • The two-day event to deliver a robust conference, adjacent to renowned packaging event WestPack, to advance the multi-billion-dollar cannabis packaging industry.

The Cannabis Packaging Conference, returns to deliver a robust conference and exhibition to showcase the latest innovative products within cannabis packaging solutions. Co-located with WestPack and produced in collaboration with the California Cannabis Industry Association, the Cannabis Packaging Conference today announced the 2022 event’s highly curated conference agenda, including two forward-looking and news-filled keynote addresses from renowned industry experts. The event is returning to the Anaheim Convention Center for its third edition, slated for the April 12-13, 2022, serving as the cannabis packaging industry’s unmissable event to network, discover the latest innovative products and solutions, gather insights, learn from peers, and ink deals. Attendee registration is open; register here to secure a conference pass today.

Formerly known as the Cannabis Packaging Summit, this year’s Cannabis Packaging Conference hosts 1.5 days of education, arming packagers with real-world solutions and technologies to overcome challenges born from the highly regulated sector and its unparalleled growth. Amid rapid legalization, the packaging of cannabis, the most crucial yet challenging aspect of the manufacturing process, is shifting toward more sophisticated and automated operations.

"Regardless of the industry, the demand for sophisticated packaging technology is rising, especially in highly regulated industries, such as the cannabis sector," said Adrienne Zepeda, Group Event Director, Cannabis Packaging Conference. "This is one of the fastest-growing industries. As such, brands and packagers face constant challenges that require face-to-face connection and education. We are proud to provide an all-encompassing platform comprising in-person offerings that facilitate much-needed connection, spotlight new solutions, and accelerate business. We couldn’t be more excited to announce this year’s conference lineup. It’s truly an unmissable event for anyone in cannabis packaging interested in meeting potential new partners, discovering the latest solutions, and learning from the world’s brightest minds advancing this dynamic industry.”

Select Cannabis Packaging Conference 2022 sessions include:

Keynote Panel: The Opportunities in Cannabis Packaging

Moderator from Tourmaline Enterprises

Panelists from MJBiz, Grove Bags, Papa & Barkley

Packagers know that cannabis is a booming business. Billion-dollar valuations of the cannabis industry are a dime a dozen –a lot of potential! But today, the cannabis industry is fragmented – with no national market, it comprises many small markets with their own distinct needs and rules. Regulations are inconsistent and there is little standardization within the industry. With this as the backdrop, packaging companies looking to enter cannabis must be flexible, provide customized offerings and fully understand varying forces in each state they target. Join our panel of industry experts as they discuss data you can use to build a business case or understand the size of the opportunity, specific examples of cannabis packaging challenges, and give you insider insights on how to bring your expertise to a high-growth industry. In this session, you’ll:

  • Get market data to understand the size of the cannabis opportunity
  • Hear about challenges specific to cannabis packaging (hint: lots of medical packaging issues apply)
  • Explore innovations in the cannabis packaging space (can you pack a pre-roll?) and understand how to leverage your skill set in this exciting, emerging sector

Panel: Cannabis Packaging Regulations Forum

Moderator from Vicente Sederberg

Panelists from Eden Enterprises Inc. and West Coast Cure

Join our panel of regulatory experts on a guided survey and analysis of the cannabis packaging landscape in the Western U.S. Take part in a real conversation on the issues that impact the success of your enterprise and the thriving of the industry. We’ll discuss:

  • The key regulatory trends and changes in cannabis packaging across the Western U.S.
  • How they could impact the marketing, branding, and packaging strategies of craft cannabis brands and MSOs
  • Proactive steps the cannabis industry is taking to shape packaging regulations in support of a responsible, equitable, and sustainable industry – and what’s needed next

Panel: Sustainability Strategies for Cannabis Packaging

Moderator from Packaging Digest

Panelists from Papa & Barkley, AE Global, and Cannachange

Sustainability is essential – and cannabis packaging is complicated enough! While many cannabis brands want their packaging to be attractive, functional, and sustainable, sustainability can fall by the wayside in the face of more complex challenges in packaging. Regulations around cannabis packaging are constantly changing, as is the public’s idea of what sustainability means. What can the cannabis market do today to ensure a sustainable industry and build sustainability into its culture? Join a discussion covering:

  • Big picture view of sustainability in cannabis packaging – who are the laggard and leader cannabis markets when it comes to sustainability?
  • Innovations in sustainable cannabis packaging
  • Expert insights
