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.

Wabtec’s 2023 Sustainability Report Highlights Progress on Key Initiatives

By: via Business Wire

Wabtec Corporation (NYSE: WAB) released today its 2023 Sustainability Report highlighting the company’s vision and progress on key environmental, social, and governance (ESG) commitments. The company’s strategy is to contribute to a better, more sustainable world through its unique business offerings, leading technologies, and sustainable business practices, while creating value for customers, employees, and other stakeholders.

“Sustainability is a collective journey,” said Lilian Leroux, Wabtec’s Chief Strategy and Sustainability Officer. “We believe that collaborating with the entire ecosystem, including internal teams, customers, end-users, suppliers, industry associations, communities, governments, and investors will empower us to succeed.”

In this year’s report, Wabtec disclosed for the first time its complete Scope 3 emissions, defined as indirect greenhouse gas emissions from sources not owned or controlled by the company but related to its activities. To gain clearer insight into the impacts of its Scope 3 emissions, the company evaluated all fifteen categories that could apply, using guidance developed by the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) to calculate Scope 3 emissions.

Wabtec also detailed several efforts and accomplishments to advance its ESG strategy and goals, including:

  • Its global in-service fleet of more than 23,000 locomotives collectively rode over 1.8 billion miles, and helped end-customers eliminate over 138 million metric tons of emissions by choosing rail over road transportation
  • Wabtec cemented collaborative research and development agreements (CRADAs) with Oak Ridge, Argonne, and Sandia National Labs, three of the United States’ premier centers of excellence to lower emissions across the rail industry using hydrogen
  • Wabtec reduced its operational greenhouse gas footprint by 35% from 2019 through 2022
  • The Grove City plant implemented a solution to redirect energy from engine testing to address more than 40% of the site’s electrical usage, enough energy to power 1,000 average households in the U.S.
  • The remanufacturing program accounted for approximately 336 million pounds of end-of-life material being returned to our global remanufacturing facilities; 82% of these materials were made fit for reuse, and the remaining materials were recycled
  • Significant year-over-year progress on all diversity, equity, and inclusion targets, such as an 11% increase in female representation globally

“Wabtec’s recently established vision, ‘Revolutionize the way the world moves for future generations’ is deeply intertwined with our sustainability principles,” said Leroux. “This report demonstrates our dedication to expanding the possible and contributing to a better, more sustainable world through our unique business offerings, leading technologies and innovations, and our extraordinary global teams.”
