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.

Food Express Welcomes Truck Equipped with the New Cummins 15-Liter Natural Gas Engine into Fleet

Clean Energy to Supply Ultra-low Carbon Renewable Natural Gas

Food Express, Inc. announced today that it has begun operating a Class-8 tractor fitted with a Cummins X15N, the highly anticipated engine which will be commercially available in 2024. Clean Energy Fuels Corp. (Nasdaq: CLNE) is providing renewable natural gas (RNG) for the new Kenworth truck at its fueling station in Fontana, California.

The Cummins X15N engine is designed to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions by 90% below current EPA standards. By operating with RNG, the Food Express truck will have a net carbon negative rating. The engine is also built with cost savings in mind, demonstrating up to a 10% fuel economy improvement compared to the Cummins ISX12N engine, yet providing a power rating of up to 500 hp and torque up to 1850 lb-ft.

Family-owned Food Express has a long-standing commitment of operating sustainably. It currently runs a fleet of 88 heavy-duty trucks that operate on RNG while transporting bulk food commodities throughout California and the Pacific Northwest.

“The addition of the new truck with Cummins’ latest clean technology into our fleet falls nicely into our decarbonization plans,” said Kevin Keeney, President of Food Express. “Having the power and torque of a larger engine is ideal for many of our routes, and it is an added benefit for it to operate with an ultra-low carbon fuel like RNG.”

“The relationship between Food Express and Clean Energy has been strong since 2015 when they began including natural gas-powered tractors into their fleet,” said Chad Lindholm, Clean Energy Senior Vice President. “Food Express quickly transitioned to RNG as it became available, and continues to demonstrate their leadership in the transportation sector by being one of a handful of fleets that are part of the early testing of Cummins latest technology and their new larger engine.”

RNG is a biogenic fuel made entirely from organic waste and drastically reduces greenhouse gas emissions. It is so clean that the California Air Resources Board gives RNG from dairy farms an average carbon score of -330, which is substantially lower than electric vehicles charging with electricity on today’s grid.
