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.

  • Customized educational programming critical to startup growth
  • Access to the right sources of capital for each entrepreneur through our connections and network
  • Connection with the vast network of Techstars mentors, investors, alumni, and corporate partners
  • Up to $120K in funding

“Boston has a deep history in blockchain technology,” said Greg Raiz, Techstars Boston managing director. “We believe we’re still in the early innings of Web3 with most consumers currently aware of crypto but still not using it in day-to-day interactions. We are excited to partner with Algorand in advancing the community and creating a vibrant ecosystem to ensure that Boston is well established as a leader in crypto.”

The three-month program runs January through April 2023 and is currently accepting applications for the inaugural class. The application deadline is September 14, 2022. Techstars is seeking companies focused on sustainable blockchain technology to power the economic models of the future.

This program will spark new energy and drive additional capital for early stage Web3 founders. With this new program, Techstars will be tripling the total number of annual investments it makes in Boston in 2023.

What is Web3?

Web3 is an internet that uses blockchain, cryptocurrencies and NFTs to give users control and ownership of online assets. Web3 is decentralized, permissionless and offers native payments. Boston is home to many cryptocurrencies and blockchain companies.

The new Techstars program is designed for startups that focus on innovative and fast-growing web3 development solutions that cut across the following:

  • Decentralized Finance (DeFi)
  • Gaming
  • Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC)
  • Creator economy
  • Infrastructure
  • Climate tech
  • Cryptocurrencies
  • Supply chain
  • Payments and more

The Algorand blockchain has unique advantages in its infrastructure and its efficiencies but, perhaps most importantly, in its environmental approach. While crypto is an incredibly exciting technology, most blockchains are terrible for the planet. Algorand is the only chain that is not just carbon neutral but actually carbon negative. This is exactly the type of technology that aligns with Techstars’ ESG goals.

“Algorand’s roots are in Boston - that is where we have built a thriving ecosystem. We're thrilled to collaborate with Techstars on accelerating high potential blockchain startups there,” said Staci Warden, CEO, Algorand Foundation.

Techstars has operated accelerators in Boston since 2012, through which it has invested in more than 186 startups with a combined market cap of $4.3B that have raised more than $2.05B in venture funding to date.
