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.

AVIA Names Winners of Inaugural Digital Transformation Healthcare Awards

AVIAwards Recognize Health Systems Leading the Nation in Virtual Care, Online Scheduling, and Patient Portal Adoption and Innovation

AVIA, the nation’s leading digital transformation partner for healthcare organizations, announced the inaugural winners of its AVIAwards for Digital Transformation, awards that celebrate the top performing health systems paving the way for consumerism in healthcare. This year’s winners include Allina Health, Boston Medical Center, Edward-Elmhurst Health, MemorialCare Health System, Ochsner Health, Sentara Healthcare, St. Luke’s University Health Network and University of Kansas Health System.

Edward-Elmhurst Health, an integrated health system serving more than 4 million people in Illinois (recently merged with NorthShore University HealthSystem to form NorthShore - Edward-Elmhurst Health), was honored with the Best Overall AVIAward for Digital Transformation for scoring the highest ranking across eight core digital benchmarking metrics. The metrics analyzed health systems’ performance in meeting rising consumer expectations for convenient and digitally enabled care experiences, such as the ability to schedule care online, utilize patient portals, and conduct virtual visits.

“It is a great honor to receive the AVIAward for Digital Transformation as it demonstrates our organization’s commitment to using digital tools to advance personalized, consumer-centric care access and delivery,” said Mary Lou Mastro, CEO, South Region, NorthShore - Edward-Elmhurst Health. “Digital is a core component of our transformation strategy and mission critical as we continue to innovate and drive safe, seamless and personal experiences for our patients and providers. It is especially meaningful to be recognized by an organization like AVIA which has dedicated its entire business to helping health systems surpass digital benchmarks and advance healthcare.”

Allina Health and Ochsner Health were also recognized with an AVIAward for systems whose patients schedule the highest percentage of appointments online. The University of Kansas Health System was awarded for having the highest proportion of their patients actively using the health system’s portal; Boston Medical Center received the AVIAward for the highest percentage of synchronous virtual visits; St. Luke’s University Health Network was recognized for its efforts to substantially accelerate its digital impact; and MemorialCare Health System and Sentara Healthcare earned accolades for the most virtual visits conducted over video platforms.

To determine the AVIAward winners, AVIA analyzed proprietary data it collected from benchmarking surveys of participating health systems’ performance in 2021. The digital benchmarking surveys examined the adoption of, and patient engagement with, digital health solutions that enable healthcare consumers to conveniently and safely access care when and how they want. Over 35 health systems participated in these surveys, representing more than 23 million unique patients and 12 million patient portal users.

“We are pleased to present our first ever AVIAwards for Digital Transformation and officially acknowledge the industry’s most forward-thinking – and acting – healthcare organizations,” said Linda Finkel, CEO of AVIA. “Health systems are moving aggressively on their digital transformation journeys and need dedicated guidance and support to achieve innovation goals. The AVIAward winners understand what it means to be truly digital, and we are proud to support them on their digital paths.”

In 2021, AVIA launched its digital benchmarking initiative in conjunction with its Digital Innovation Leaders Steering Committee, a group of digital health leaders across the AVIA health system network, to define success around key consumerism and virtual health performance metrics.

Winners of the AVIAwards for Digital Transformation were announced at the annual AVIA Network Summit, an invitation-only event in Chicago on May 10.
