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.

Sallie Mae® (Nasdaq: SLM) today released its annual Corporate Social Responsibility Report, “Powering Confidence: Increasing Access and Opportunity Through Higher Education.” The report highlights the company’s continued commitment to environmental, social, and governance best practices through consistent focus on its customers, team members, and communities.

Sallie Mae supports access and completion of higher education through its charitable arm, The Sallie Mae Fund. Specifically, the company awarded nearly $1 million in scholarships to minority students and those from underserved communities as part of its ongoing partnership with Thurgood Marshall College Fund. Over the course of three years (2021-2023), $3 million in scholarships will be awarded to students through The Sallie Mae Fund’s Bridging the Dream Scholarship Program. Additionally, the company provided $250,000 to support nonprofits focused on eliminating barriers for Hispanic and LGBTQ+ students, part of the company’s broader $1.5 million commitment to advance social justice in higher education.

The company is also dedicated to filling confidence gaps, and helping students and families make informed decisions about college and their future. Sallie Mae offers any and all students and families free and accessible tools and resources, including scholarship search tools, tutoring support, money management, and budgeting tools, and internship and career guidance after college. In fact, more than 24,000 students earned a scholarship through the company’s free scholarship search tool, collectively covering $67 million in college costs.

“While our primary business is to offer private student loans to finance any gaps after scholarships, grants, and federal financial aid, our mission is much broader: we are powering confidence as students begin their unique journey in higher education,” said Jon Witter, CEO, Sallie Mae. “We know higher education is a great equalizer and a proven pathway to economic mobility and those doors should be open to all students. We’re focused on doing just that by providing free tools, resources, and scholarships to help students — particularly those from underserved communities — access and complete college. Our commitment also extends to the communities where our diverse team members live, work, and serve. These efforts are foundational to being a good corporate citizen and a great place to work.”

Sallie Mae supports its more than 1,400 team members through ongoing professional development and empowers them to bring their full selves to work each day. More than 100 team members took advantage of the company’s generous tuition reimbursement program last year, and the company also paid nearly $350,000 to fully vaccinated team members as part of its COVID-19 vaccination incentive program. Additionally, the company welcomed Chief Diversity Officer Lori Aiken and formed a Diversity Council.
