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.

Calix Offers Bark Free for US Employees So They Can Help Protect Their Children From Social Media Dangers

By: via Business Wire

Following the successful launch of Bark as a managed service on the Calix broadband platform—galvanizing broadband service providers to play a critical role in protecting children in their communities from online dangers—Calix makes the award-winning social media monitoring app available as a free employee benefit to all eligible U.S.-based team members

Calix, Inc. (NYSE: CALX) is strengthening its purpose-driven culture by making Bark social media monitoring a free benefit for all employees in the United States. With this launch, Calix enhances its award-winning culture centered on employee well-being and community impact.

The AI-enabled Bark dashboard monitors children’s text messages, emails, and over 30 apps and platforms for potential safety concerns. When digital dangers such as cyberbullying or predation are detected, the parent or caregiver receives an automatic alert. This means adults can address issues immediately, without combing through every online interaction—and children retain their privacy. Bark social media monitoring works both in the home and when children are on the go.

Calix first partnered with Bark last year, adding the tool as its sixth managed service for the Calix Revenue EDGE™ solution on the Calix broadband platform. Today, an increasing number of Calix customers (ALLO Communications, Three River Communications, Tombigbee Fiber, and more) make Bark available to their subscribers as part of their managed Wi-Fi offerings. By doing so, they’re transforming their business models while doing good for their communities. As Bark is fully integrated on the Calix platform, broadband service providers (BSPs) can launch the offering in just days.

By scaling this immediate and impactful tool to thousands of subscribers, Calix customers are giving parents an actionable way to address the documented harm social media poses to children’s health.

In the U.S., suicide is now the second leading cause of death among kids ages 15-24. From 2007 to 2018, suicide rates among kids ages 10-24 increased almost 60 percent. A summary of a 2018 study posted by the National Institutes of Health concludes: “Greater time spent on online social networking promotes self-harm behavior and suicidal ideation in vulnerable adolescents.” To date, Bark has detected and addressed 1.4 million self-harm situations among children in the U.S.

Starting today, all eligible Calix employees across the U.S. can now use Bark as a free benefit.

“Every day, our BSP customers live their values by transforming communities one family, school, and business at a time,” said Michael Weening, president and chief executive officer at Calix. “Our partnership with these customers is incredibly inspiring and motivating for our team members. In today’s digital world, children face challenges their parents sometimes struggle to understand. We added Bark to our broadband platform because our customers told us that their top priority was helping their communities. With the same purpose in mind, we’re committed to safeguarding the health and wellness of the Calix team. We’re proud to leverage our partnership with Bark to help every child in our community grow up safe and protected by offering the Bark app free to our team members. Helping children and families is the right thing to do.”

Calix continues to grow its remote workforce. Visit Calix Careers to learn more.
