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.

MetLife, Inc. (NYSE: MET) announced today the launch of two services, Will Preparation & Digital Estate Planning and Estate Resolution, now available to members enrolled in life insurance at no additional cost through its MetLife Worldwide Benefits business. Legal services like will preparation and estate resolution are among the top benefits requested by globally-mobile employees of their employers, according to MetLife’s Annual 2022 Expat Employee Benefit Trends Study.

These services, offered through MetLife Legal Plans, provide members access to an extensive network of more than 18,000 participating plan attorneys, including unlimited access to the attorney network for will preparation and estate resolution needs. Additionally, they include:

Will preparation and Digital Estate Planning:

  • Preparing and updating wills, including complex will(s), living will(s), power(s) of attorney for medical directives and healthcare proxies for both members and their spouse/domestic partner
  • In-person or telephone consultations with an attorney
  • Ability to create documents online via the MetLife Legal Plans website; with an in-network attorney (U.S. only); or by using an attorney (U.S. and international) and filing a claim for reimbursement for the attorney’s fee (up to a certain amount)

Estate Resolution:

  • Preparation of estate documents and professional court representation at court proceedings available to help properly distribute probated assets from the estate
  • Preparation of correspondence needed to transfer non-probate assets, as well as any associated tax filings

“These new services make us one of the few expat carriers that is able to offer a full suite of products to our clients for their globally-mobile employees, giving them additional peace of mind as they deal with the unique challenges of the global workforce,” said Fernando Jaime, vice president, MetLife Worldwide Benefits. “These new benefits continue to set us apart in the customized solutions we are able to offer our clients,” he added.

Will Preparation & Digital Estate Planning and Estate Resolution services come in addition to Grief Counseling services that made available to members and clients with Life insurance last year.
