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.

First introduced more than 100 years ago, the Buddy Lee doll has amassed a global following amongst pop culture, denim and history aficionados. The Lee® x BE@RBRICK collection captures the brand’s playful attitude embodied by Buddy, mixing BE@RBRICK’S design-driven mission with a nod to '90s nostalgia.

“This collaboration feels like the perfect mesh of two global icons,” said Joe Broyles, Vice President of Global Collaborations, Lee®. “The figurines are a new iteration of Buddy and will be great additions for denim fans and BE@RBRICK collectors. We love how the accompanying tees and jacket bring a wearable connection to these collectibles.”

The figurine is available in the 1000% - standing over two feet tall – size as well as a duo of the 400% and 100% styles. Each wears a denim overall and hat inspired by the heritage design Lee® has been making for more than a century. The apparel consists of three tees and a denim jacket. Each tee features a different design of patches or screenprinted imagery of Buddy and his BE@RBRICK counterpart. Based on the iconic Lee® Rider jacket, the denim jacket is an oversized fit and vintage wash with sewn on patches of Buddy. Pieces are available in sizes XS-XXL with prices at $45 for the tees to $185 for the jacket. The collectibles cost $800 for the large one and $200 for the duo.

The Lee x BE@RBRICK collection is available at Concepts stores in Boston and New York City and online, as well as on Lee’s owned sites and stores in Europe, North Carolina and Asia.
