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.

Don’t Just Play Them, Build Them! K12 Announces a Nationwide Competition for Students to Create Educational Video Games

K12, a national leader in online education, has announced Game On, a nationwide competition for students to pitch creative new ideas for an educational video game, with big prizes online!

"We're calling on students to level up their creativity and craft the future of gaming for their fellow peers," said Karen Ghidotti, Senior Vice President of Customer Experience and Advocacy at K12. "As our inaugural game development competition, we can't wait to witness the extraordinary and imaginative concepts these students will unleash!"

The K12 Game On Competition is open to all K through 12 students nationwide, now through January 31. Students will compete in divisions based on grade level (K–2, 3–5, 6–8, and 9–12), pitching their ideas in round one and submitting a full proposal if they move forward to round two. In the final round, competition finalists will be invited to create a video trailer of their game.

Competition materials will be judged by K12 staff and a panel of national experts, including:

  • Steve Isaacs, Education Program Manager at Epic Games, and
  • Kurt Benkert, former NFL star, and a nationally ranked Fortnite player.

Participants are eligible to earn prizes such as a Sony PlayStation®5, Microsoft Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch™, Valve Steam Deck™, and Amazon Gift Cards. Each grade band will have two winners—one selected by our judges and one People’s Choice winner selected through public voting. Winners will be announced on March 29.
