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.

Knowles Gifts $200K to Advance Gender Diversity in Engineering

The donation will enrich scholarships, professional development for female students at the University of Illinois Chicago College of Engineering

Knowles Corporation (NYSE: KN), a market leader and global provider of advanced micro-acoustic microphones and speakers, audio processing, and precision device solutions, today announced it has committed $200,000 to the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) College of Engineering to support the enrollment and academic success of female students pursuing STEM degrees. As part of a perennial sponsorship from Knowles, this year's donation supports the university’s efforts to empower diverse groups of students to access opportunities in the engineering field.

“A diverse workforce is crucial for ensuring innovation in technology,” said Jeffrey Niew, President and CEO of Knowles and chairman of the UIC College of Engineering Advisory Board. “This gift will further support UIC in attracting, retaining and developing the talent to accelerate change in the technology sector while advancing the growth of underrepresented groups in STEM. Knowles is proudly committed to helping more students achieve their highest educational goals and realize both personal and professional success.”

The $200,000 donation will be distributed across the following critical initiatives:

  • The UIC Knowles Electronics Scholarships for Women Fund: Knowles believes that access to financial resources is critical in attracting and retaining female STEM students. High-achieving first-year STEM students who identify as female are eligible for UIC’s College of Engineering Society of Women Engineers Knowles Scholarships.
  • UIC’s Women in Engineering Summer Program (WIESP): The annual intensive program exposes junior- and senior-level female high school students to various engineering fields. The program focuses on engineering concepts, robotics and spatial competencies. Each year, Knowles hosts these students at its corporate headquarters in Itasca for a day that includes hands-on learning about careers in engineering and live interactions with the Knowles staff, including female engineers.
  • The UIC Engineering Advisory Board Annual Gift Fund: The Knowles gift will support Advisory Board initiatives, including career placement, facilities, research, scholarships, chaired professorships, and more. These initiatives are necessary to uphold the high standard of educational excellence at UIC.

“The College of Engineering is immensely thankful for Knowles Corporation’s continued support of our mission and students. Knowles’ commitment to increasing diversity in STEM mirrors our goal of creating opportunities for students of all backgrounds to better their own lives and improve the world through engineering,” said Peter Nelson, Dean of UIC’s College of Engineering.

In addition to its longstanding support for the UIC College of Engineering, Knowles prides itself on fostering gender diversity in the workplace through mentorship, leadership and career opportunities.
