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.

North Carolina Virtual Academy Students are Ready to Take Charge of Their Future

After two years of questions and distractions, the students of North Carolina Virtual Academy (NCVA), an online public school serving students throughout the state, are looking forward to getting on with their future.

NCVA will celebrate its graduates in-person with a commencement ceremony on Thursday, June 9th, beginning at 10 am. In addition, the ceremony will be recorded via live stream on NCVA’s Facebook page, for those interested in attending virtually.

“We have a lot of students that struggle during normal times and the last two years were challenging. Our students, faculty, and staff with the support of parents and learning coaches were dedicated to finish strong,” said Marcia Simmons. “We’re excited to see our students graduate and move on to the next steps in their careers and academic futures.”

Online students at NCVA have had quite the success. NCVA increased its graduation rate over 17.3% from 2019 to 2021. This year, NCVA will graduate approximately 118 students from all over the state. Collectively, the graduating class reports it has been accepted to colleges and universities across North Carolina and beyond, including East Carolina University, Guilford Tech Community College, and College of the Albemarle, to name a few. Some NCVA graduates are working on vocational apprenticeships with companies on their way to becoming licensed professionals in the workforce.

William Trimble is NCVA’s 2022 valedictorian, and our salutatorian will be Ashley Westbrook. The ceremony’s keynote speaker will be Marc Murray, a motivational speaker with Marc Murray Life Coaching & Consulting, LLC. We will also have special remarks for our graduates from guest speaker, Jason Saine, House Senior Appropriations Chair.

Prior to the pandemic, students enrolled in virtual school for a number of reasons—some were looking for the safe learning environment that online school provides, some were looking to get back on track to earn their high school diploma, and others found a community of students and teachers where they could belong for the rest of their academic career and beyond.

North Carolina Virtual Academy students in grades K-12 access a robust online curriculum in the core subjects, a host of electives and attend live virtual classes taught by state-certified teachers. In addition, NCVA prides itself with the unique clubs offered to students, whether academic, career-oriented, or simply fun—all students are welcome.

NCVA is looking forward to celebrating its senior class and all that they have accomplished the past four years. After graduation, students can enjoy their “Starry Night” prom for an evening of food, dancing, and fun under the stars!

NCVA is inviting all families and friends worldwide to join the celebration virtually. Please visit the NCVA Facebook page for streaming. Details of the graduation ceremonies are as follows:
