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.

Kinetic Offers Free Digital Literacy Courses

By: via Business Wire

Available to Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime

People of all ages can learn how to use computers and navigate the online world through free new courses offered by high-speed fiber internet provider Kinetic.

The online Kinetic Digital Literacy Program includes 12 video courses in three categories—essential computer skills, basic office software skills and daily technology skills.

All courses are created by Kinetic’s learning and development team.

“Our goal is to help people know the basics of how technology works and how to use it with confidence,” said Mark Saffell, senior director of learning and development at Kinetic.

“You may have never used a computer before or you may just want to brush up on your skills,” he said. “Whatever your situation, you’ll be able through these courses to learn what you need to know to take part in today’s digital world, fully, safely and responsibly.”

He added: “We also understand that many people who are new to computers or the internet don’t have computers of their own. That’s why we’re making Kinetic’s courses available at public libraries so that learners can use the library computers, thanks to our relationship with the American Library Association. We’re going to start with libraries in mostly rural communities where we offer high-speed fiber internet to households and small businesses.”

The program, launched to coincide with the start of a new school year, also supports Kinetic’s commitment to serving people who are underserved, thereby reducing the “digital divide.” The digital divide refers to the gap between people who have access to modern information and communications technology and those who don’t.

“Having access to the technology and not having the skills you need to use it is another form of the digital divide,” said Kinetic President Jeff Small. “Promoting digital literacy is a key part of the investment we are making in the communities we call home. Our promise is to increase digital equity by bringing our best internet experience to these communities and improving digital literacy so that everyone can be a full player in today’s digital world. You can’t even apply for a job today without digital literacy because many companies now only accept online applications. That’s why we created this digital literacy program.”

Each course is designed for success by children as well as adults. The average time to complete a course ranges from five to 12 minutes.

Anyone anywhere can take a course for free anytime by visiting Kinetic’s digital literacy website.

Learners do not need to register. Nor do they need to be Kinetic customers. And they can take the courses as many times as they like.

“No one is born with digital literacy skills, but everyone needs them to succeed in today’s world,” Small said. “This free program helps learners develop computer and online skills that are essential for digital success.”
