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.

Interface Introduces Past Forward, A Global Carpet Tile Collection Inspired by 50 Years of Iconic Design

Interface, Inc. (NASDAQ: TILE), the global flooring solutions company and leader in sustainability, today unveils its newest carpet tile collection, Past Forward, offering new modern classics inspired by decades of iconic design. Available globally, the collection celebrates 50 years of modular carpet tile innovation at Interface. It merges historic design motifs with bold patterns and color palettes tailored to meet the demands of today's commercial spaces.

“The collection, drawing inspiration from fashion's heritage trend and the revival of 60s and 70s furniture design, offers a peek into 50 years of carpet tile designs. The design process involved research and dialogues with pioneers in carpet tile manufacturing to capture the romance of historical designs and how these have evolved," noted David Oakey, founder of David Oakey Designs and exclusive product designer for Interface. "This culminated in a fusion of ideas, taking inspiration from Axminster and Wilton designs alongside hand-painted motifs, artfully reimagined with today's advanced tufting technology. The result is unmatched versatility, enabling the creation of uniquely expressive, serene, and stylish spaces."

50 Years of Iconic Design, Reimagined

With 14 products featuring a bold color palette, Past Forward reinvigorates decades-old designs, blending retro charm with contemporary design sensibilities. The collection offers a range of dynamic carpet tile styles, including ornate rococo and renaissance visuals, retro patterns with scribbles and boxes, vintage-inspired patchwork styles, and traditional Turkish motifs. The result is a versatile collection that harmonizes familiarity with the exceptional performance of modular carpet tile.

Designed to be an innovative area rug solution, Past Forward can help define areas for relaxing, productivity, or collaborative work. The styles can also help delineate room borders, support wayfinding or be featured in wall-to-wall installation for maximum impact.

The collection serves as an ideal accent for other Interface carpet tiles, nora® rubber, and LVT styles, enabling designers to create beautifully balanced and purposeful spaces.

Patterns of the Past, Constructed for the Future

The Past Forward collection bridges design heritage with modern ingenuity and echoes Interface's commitment toward sustainability. By using processes and materials that deliver a low carbon footprint and include recycled content, the collection aligns with Interface's goal to reduce its emissions while helping customers lower the carbon footprint of the spaces they create.

Past Forward is made from 100 percent recycled content nylon. Like all Interface flooring, Past Forward is carbon neutral throughout its life cycle as part of the third-party verified Carbon Neutral Floors™ program.
