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.

Hot Wheels Skate Partners with Tony Hawk's Vert Alert and X Games to Ignite the Challenger Spirit This Summer

By: via Business Wire

Hot Wheels Skate aims to make these two highly anticipated global events even more kid-friendly and accessible to all through its new products, experiences and content

Hot Wheels announced today its official sponsorship of Tony Hawk’s Vert Alert in Salt Lake City, UT and X Games California 2023 in Ventura, CA in support of its Hot Wheels Skate line. Through the Hot Wheels Skate line, Hot Wheels is furthering its mission to inspire fingerboard enthusiasts of all levels to ignite their challenger spirit and skate the impossible with no limits or rules.

In 2022, Hot Wheels Skate began its partnership with Tony Hawk, the legendary skateboarder, entrepreneur and founder of The Skatepark Project, a non-profit organization that helps underserved communities create safe and inclusive public skateparks for youth, by launching a wide range of fingerboards with unique designs. Created by the Hot Wheels design team in collaboration with Tony Hawk, Hot Wheels Skate also includes replications of some of Tony’s most famous board designs.

“Hot Wheels Skate is committed to empowering the next generation of skaters through kid-friendly events, engaging content, and innovative products that make fingerboarding and skateboarding accessible to all,” said Roberto Stanichi, Senior Vice President and Global Head of Vehicles, Mattel. “We’re excited to be the exclusive toy partner at Tony Hawk’s Vert Alert and X Games California to further our mission for Hot Wheels Skate and bring the fun of fingerboarding to these incredible events for the first time.”

“One of the driving forces behind X Games events is inspiring the next generation of action sports athletes, and partnering with Hot Wheels Skate is a perfect match for this goal,” said Eric Johnson, CCO, X Games. “Hot Wheels Skate has been a longtime supporter of the growth of skateboarding and we are happy to welcome them as the official toy partner at X Games California.”

This year, Tony Hawk’s Vert Alert will serve as a qualifying event for X Games Vert competitions. In the Men’s and Women’s Vert disciplines, the top six finishers at Tony Hawk’s Vert Alert will earn an invite to X Games. In the Vert Best Trick discipline, the top eight finishers will be invited. Hot Wheels Skate is introducing new awards and prize packs to the junior skateboarding competitions as the title sponsor of the Woodward “Best Trick Contest,” which will take place at 2:00 PM on June 24.

Starting on July 21, Hot Wheels Skate will join the world's most elite action sports athletes at X Games with kid-friendly activations in the X Fest fan activation area. Young fans can join professional skaters at the Hot Wheels Skate mini ramp clinic to ramp up their skills and reach amazing heights with the help of the pros. Hot Wheels Skate athletes will also perform slick tricks and stunts on the mini ramp throughout the weekend.

The Hot Wheels Skate product line, which will be on-site at fingerboarding play tables during Tony Hawk’s Vert Alert and X Games, is another demonstration of the brand’s growth and expansion as Hot Wheels fuels the next generation of passionate action sports athletes with products, competitions and content. The line features a wide range of fingerboards with unique designs and attachable shoes, along with out-of-this-world skatepark playsets and can be found at retailers nationwide.
