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.

Mentoring and Sponsoring Relationships Can Boost Women’s Workplace Retention and Success, ISG Says

ISG expert says diverse teams deliver higher revenues

A mentoring expert with Information Services Group (ISG) (Nasdaq: III), a leading global technology research and advisory firm, said mentoring and sponsoring relationships can drive women’s success at work and increase enterprise revenue.

Speaking during a webinar, “Creating Equitable Workplaces for Women,” hosted by Built In, an online community and news site for tech startups, ISG Director Julie Kantor, citing research from the Center for Talent Innovation, said women are three times more likely than men to have mentors willing to share experience, knowledge and skills, but are only half as likely as men to have a sponsor who advocates for their success with workplace leaders and decision-makers.

“Women need to build relationships with mentors – someone who speaks with you – and with sponsors, who speak about you behind closed doors and champion you to others,” Kantor said. “Ultimately, women’s success in the workplace is good business. Diverse teams outperform homogenous teams every time, bringing together a variety of people, purposes and processes to deliver better products and services and increased revenue.”

Having a peer, mentor or sponsor who can help understand workplace political nuances can also help colleagues learn from each other and build an organization’s multi-generational, comparative abilities – drawing on the varied strengths of diverse groups of people, she said.

Citing the Tallest Poppy Study 2023 by Women of Influence+, which found 90 percent of women feel they are penalized for being successful at work, Kantor said feeling undervalued and undermined is causing many women leaders to “break up” with the corporate world and become entrepreneurs or stop working altogether.

“Significant opportunity exists for women to support each other in their success,” she said. “With the loss of the proverbial water cooler connection at work, we’re not coming together as women or as colleagues enough. We need to rebuild our sisterhood and our sense of trust, respect and belonging.”

Additional information is available on the event website.

ISG provides mentorship training services as part of its Enterprise Change practice, which offers clients capabilities in organizational change management, leadership development, mentoring, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI), executive coaching and culture change. For more, visit this webpage.
