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.

This year, Cathay Pacific celebrated its 40th anniversary of connecting Hong Kong and North America. Today, Cathay Pacific offers nonstop passenger services to Hong Kong and over 60 destinations worldwide—including 16 airports in 15 cities in the Chinese Mainland—from four U.S. cities (Boston, Los Angeles, New York (JFK), and San Francisco)—with Chicago services resuming on October 1.

By selecting Affirm at checkout, approved Cathay Pacific customers can split the total cost of any flight into bi-weekly or monthly payments, for as low as 0% APR. Customers are shown the total cost of their purchase and will never pay more than they agree to upfront.

“Cathay Pacific is delighted to partner with Affirm to offer our customers another payment option to purchase flights for their dream trip. Cathay Pacific travelers will now be able to split their payment into easy installments, making it an attractive option for those who prefer to pay over time, at their own pace, without any late or hidden fees,” said Richard Jones, Cathay Pacific’s Vice President of Marketing & Sales, Americas. “Customers have been asking for more flexibility when it comes to payment options, and this partnership with Affirm delivers a simple and easy-to-use flexible payment option. With Cathay Pacific rebuilding its network of flights from North America to Hong Kong and beyond, there has never been a better time to buy a ticket and explore the world, with flexibility and ease.”

“Global airline traffic in May was up nearly 40% compared to 2022 and has returned to over 95% of pre-pandemic levels. We’re thrilled to partner with Cathay Pacific to meet this demand by offering travelers a flexible and transparent way to pay over time for flights,” said Wayne Pommen, Affirm’s Chief Revenue Officer. “By integrating Affirm, Cathay Pacific can seamlessly offer personalized monthly and bi-weekly payment options side-by-side in a single checkout experience that delivers increased purchasing power to its customers.”

Cathay Pacific joins over 245,000 Affirm merchants, including Adidas, American Airlines, Gucci, SeatGeek, Walmart, and more. Offering Affirm at checkout can increase overall sales, average order value, conversion, and customer repurchase rates.
