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.

Michigan-based Virtual Schools Introduce New Kindergarten Prep Program for Young Learners

Enrollment for the new programs offering interactive online lessons and hands-on learning activities is now open

Two Michigan-based full-time, tuition-free, virtual public schools — Highpoint Virtual Academy of Michigan (HVAM) and Michigan Great Lakes Virtual Academy (MGLVA) — have launched a two-year transitional kindergarten prep program that introduces young students to core subjects through engaging and interactive online lessons. Enrollment for the program is now open for children turning five years old by December 1, 2023.

“The first years of school are a critical first step in sparking a joy for learning in students and setting them up for success throughout their academic journey,” said Mary Moorman, Head of School at HVAM. “This program is uniquely designed to provide young learners with the additional time needed to build their foundational skills in core academic areas, such as math and reading, while also helping them grow socially and emotionally.”

Students enrolled in the program will meet daily with their teacher and their classmates in a virtual setting to work on socialization practices, daily learning goals and social-emotional learning. In the first year of the program, students will focus on developing skills in math, reading, science, social studies, art and music. The second year of the program follows a traditional kindergarten focus giving students additional time and support to reinforce the skills they built the previous year.

“Our schools are both committed to giving students of all ages the best education possible so they can realize the highest levels of academic achievement today and throughout their educational journey,” said Kendall Schroeder, Head of School at MGLVA. “The curriculum in this program is rooted in the principles of how children learn and gives parents the opportunity to engage in their student’s learning with the support of our teachers and staff to make sure they stay on track.”

Both schools’ programs follow Embark — an award-winning kindergarten prep curriculum offering highly interactive courses with audio and visuals to help children follow along. The curriculum utilizes thematic units that are relevant to young children, such as “Family and Friends,” “My Five Senses,” “Looking at Animals,” and more, to help them build skills in key subject areas. Students will also be provided with materials such as reading books, manipulatives, flashcards, foam dice, science and social studies kits, and more to strengthen their skills offline.
