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.

Comcast Introduces Multi-Gig Symmetrical Speeds in Atlanta

New DOCSIS 4.0 deployment provides 300 Mbps, 500 Mbps, 1Gbps and 2Gbps upload and download speeds to select neighborhoods in Atlanta

Comcast announced that this month Atlanta residents in select neighborhoods became among the first in the nation to receive symmetrical multi-gigabit upload and download speeds powered by DOCSIS 4.0 technology. The latest version of DOCSIS technology is a giant leap forward in Internet connectivity, delivering symmetrical speeds, low latency, and ultimate capacity over the connections that already exist in customer homes.

“The enhancements we have been making to our network over the past few years have brought us to this pivotal moment of being the first to introduce DOCSIS 4.0 and multi-gig symmetrical speeds to the Atlanta market,” said Tony Speller, Senior Vice President of Technical Operations and Engineering at Comcast Central Division. “This new technology will revolutionize the Internet experience – especially how our customers experience live sports, gaming, and more.”

Comcast has launched the next-generation X-Class Internet portfolio, which will be available to new and existing Internet customers connected via DOCSIS 4.0. The X-Class speed tiers include X-300 Mbps, X-500 Mbps, X-1 Gbps and X-2 Gbps upload and download speeds and low lag for the ultimate live sports streaming experience on Peacock, smooth connections on work calls, and ultra-responsive gaming.

In addition to multi-gig speeds, Comcast offers residential customers more options than anyone else to choose the speeds that meet their household needs, for costs as low as $9.95 (or free with the Affordable Connectivity Program) through its Internet Essentials program for income-qualified households.

Comcast is already the largest provider of gigabit-plus Internet speeds in the country and was the first to deliver gigabit speeds over its entire network. Comcast has invested more than $30 billion in its network nationally in the last decade to support these innovations and $2.8 billion in Georgia over the last three years to expand, strengthen and evolve its network. Investing in communities nationwide will allow Comcast to break new ground and continue delivering Internet service in the coming years.

Residential customers in Atlanta can sign up online for the new DOCSIS 4.0-powered Internet plans. Availability to business customers, as well as additional markets in Georgia and across the Comcast footprint will be announced in 2024.
