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.

By: via Business Wire

Stride, Inc. (NYSE: LRN)—a leading provider of innovative, high-quality, and tech-enabled education solutions—today named Donna Blackman as its new Chief Financial Officer, effective July 1, 2022.

Ms. Blackman has served as Stride’s Chief Accounting Officer and Treasurer for the past two years. She will replace outgoing CFO Timothy Medina, who is retiring. Mr. Medina will remain as a consultant to Stride while Ms. Blackman transitions into her new role.

“Having worked closely with Donna over the past two years, I am confident that no one is more prepared for this opportunity,” said James Rhyu, Stride’s Chief Executive Officer. “Under her leadership, we will continue to expand our core business and drive growth in our career learning programs and services—now and in the future.”

Among many accomplishments during his tenure, Mr. Medina has been integral in Stride’s efforts to lead the future of innovation in education—particularly in the career learning space, including the acquisitions of MedCerts and Tech Elevator, as well as leading the implementation of Stride’s environmental, social, and governance reporting.

With more than two decades of experience in finance and operations, Ms. Blackman brings a wide breadth of expertise in accounting and strategic planning to the CFO role.

Prior to joining Stride in 2020, Ms. Blackman served as the Senior Vice President of Business Operations at BET Networks, a subsidiary of Viacom. In this position, she oversaw an organization responsible for finance, strategy, research, live events, security, facilities, and operations. During her tenure at BET, Ms. Blackman also held roles as Senior Vice President and Head of Finance, Senior Vice President Financial Planning and Analysis, and Senior Vice President Finance and Controller.

“As we continue to provide the best digital learning products and services for learners of all ages, I am honored to begin this new journey and help lead Stride into the next stage of growth,” Ms. Blackman said.

Earlier in her career, Ms. Blackman worked for both Marriott International and KPMG in a variety of leadership roles in accounting and finance positions. She holds a Master of Business Administration from the University of Maryland’s Robert H. Smith School of Business and a bachelor’s degree in accounting from North Carolina State University. She is also a Certified Public Accountant.
