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.

Lafarge Canada Advances Decarbonisation Commitment with Installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations in Northern Alberta

Lafarge Canada announced the installation of two electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at its Innovation Hub at Winterburn, in alignment with the company's sustainability goal to reduce indirect carbon emissions from sources.

Following the installation of EV chargers at the Kent Avenue Readymix site in Vancouver, Lafarge's Innovation Hub in northern Alberta's prairie region is Lafarge’s first location in Alberta and contributes to the target of one hundred charging stations planned for installation across British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba.

By installing EV charging stations, Lafarge Canada is supporting the transition to clean energy and alternatives to internal combustion engine vehicles; it follows Lafarge’s goal of converting its light-duty vehicle fleet to electric vehicles by 2025.

"At Lafarge, we are committed to reducing emissions and improving the sustainability of our operations," says Prez Skiba, Vice President and General Manager, Northern Alberta and Western Canada Ready-Mix. "By making chargers available to our customers and employees, we are removing the barrier to EV charging availability and convenience."

On its journey to net-zero, Lafarge is at the forefront of the construction materials industry, finding solutions where possible to reduce carbon emissions.

"With the installation of electric vehicle chargers across our markets, Lafarge is leading the charge on electric vehicle adoption in Western Canada," says Brad Kohl, President and CEO, Western Canada. "This is just one of many steps we're taking to reduce our carbon emissions to build a more sustainable future."

The charging stations will be available for use by employees and visitors, and will be equipped with fast-charging capabilities to reduce wait times. This initiative is part of a broader sustainability mandate that Lafarge Canada has implemented to minimize its environmental impact.
