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.

¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest Announces 2023 Finalists, Showcases Up-and-Coming Hispanic Talent

Film Festival to be Featured on HITN, Nation’s Leading Spanish-Language Broadcaster, as Part of Hispanic Heritage Month Programming

The award-winning ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest announced its top 10 finalists in advance of the festival’s 2023 online debut. This event, which empowers young Hispanic artists to tell their story through film, will be broadcast online between Oct. 9 and Oct. 16, 2023.

Presented by HITN, the ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest is designed to elevate the visibility of emerging Latino/a storytellers, creatives, and filmmakers and give them a larger stage to present their work. This year participants were asked to submit films in one of four categories: music video, animation, sci-fi or politics today.

In traditional media, Latino/a actors, creators and artists continue to be underrepresented, making up only 3.3 percent of leads in U.S. television shows and 5 percent of leads in movies compared to their 19 percent share of the U.S. population. From the behind-the-scenes perspective, only 4 percent of screenwriters are Latino/a.

The ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest continues to expand each year and to include the visibility of underrepresented young creatives. Earlier this year, the online film festival was recognized with a Silver Telly Award for its exceptional programming and its impact in amplifying Latino voices and stories.

According to Cynthia Rivera, Director of Operations for the ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest, this year’s festival was notable for the high-quality productions created by Latina women. “The growth of ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest over the last three years fills us with immense pride. This year, our young filmmakers explored many themes, including the transition to adulthood, immigration, time travel, grief, and the power of nature, reflecting the rich diversity of their viewpoints,” Rivera said. “We are thrilled to note that young women directed 60% of the final films, a fact that not only speaks to the success of our festival but also underscores a welcome trend towards greater inclusivity in the film industry. Each narrative weaved, each perspective shared, enriches our festival, and we look forward to the future works of these promising filmmakers."

In addition to the film festival, the ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest team has also produced a series of virtual film chats and “Cafecito” social media live broadcasts featuring industry experts and professionals who will be sharing their stories and insights to help emerging filmmakers looking to grow in the industry. Program announcements for upcoming events will be made on CineYouthFest.org and the festival’s Instagram page.

The top selection of films for the ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest will be screened on CineYouthFest.org and the HITN GO app from Oct. 9 to Oct. 16, 2023. The top 10 finalists include:

  • “Bigger” by Melissa Morales
  • “Dulce” by Aleyda Ortiz
  • “El Cuerpo de Mamá” by Adrian Borges Estrada
  • “El First Date” by Adrian Borges Estrada
  • “Enamorado” by Eduardo Rivera Salas
  • “Go Dani Go” by Chelsea Patricia Ramirez
  • “Jayuya” by Jordan Fernandez
  • “Lagrimas” by Ariana Marie Luque
  • “Regrésame/Bring me Back!” by Wilannie M. Cruz
  • “U.S. VS BELTRAN” by Miranda Montenegro

An independent jury will evaluate entries based on a variety of factors, including awareness of the subject matter; creativity in the approach of the subject matter; technical aspects such as directing, acting, cinematography, and editing; and inspirational and storytelling impact of the piece. Judges will select three winners from the pool of finalists. Awards are $4,000 for the Grand Prize, $2,000 for the Second Prize, and $1,000 for the Third Prize. Winners will be announced on Oct. 16, 2023 at 7 p.m. EST via the ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest’s YouTube channel and website.

Sponsors for the 2023 edition of the ¡Tú Cuentas! Cine Youth Fest include the International Puerto Rican Heritage Film Festival, National Hispanic Caucus of State Legislators, Autonomous Municipality of Comerío, Municipality of Loíza, and Fundación Cortés.
