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.

Spire Global to Launch the First Commercial Space Situational Awareness Satellite Constellation for NorthStar Earth & Space

The 'Four of a Kind’ dedicated mission from Rocket Lab will deliver four SSA satellites, fully built and operated by Spire, to low Earth orbit

Spire Global, Inc. (NYSE: SPIR) (“Spire” or “the Company”), a global provider of space-based data, analytics and space services, today announced the dedicated launch mission of four satellites for Space Situational Awareness provider, NorthStar Earth & Space. The ‘Four of a Kind’ mission is scheduled to launch no earlier than January 18 between 19:15-20:00 NZT (January 18 between 06:15-07:00 UTC) from Rocket Lab Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand. The Company will livestream the launch on YouTube (@spire-global).

"The upcoming launch of the first commercial space situational awareness constellation for NorthStar symbolizes more than just a technological achievement; it's a reflection of our shared dedication to addressing sustainability in space,” said Peter Platzer, Spire Global CEO. “Through our Space as a Service model, we’ve removed the barriers of building a business in space so that companies like NorthStar can create new ‘firsts’ and quickly bring to market solutions to address our biggest challenges on Earth and in space. We look forward to the success of this mission and the positive impact it will make on advancing our understanding of space.”

Built and operated by Spire, the mission will deliver the first of NorthStar’s space situational awareness (SSA) satellites to low Earth orbit (LEO). NorthStar is the first commercial SSA provider to actively scan and monitor space from space. The satellites will monitor all near-Earth orbits, delivering an enhanced level of SSA services to the global satellite community, with timely and precise information for space object detection, tracking, orbit determination, collision avoidance, navigation and proximity alerts.

“NorthStar is proud to be working with like-minded leaders at Rocket Lab and Spire. Our success is rooted in this collaboration. We are working together to make significant contributions to the sustainability of space, and this first launch of NorthStar's transformational space-based SSA services is only the beginning. NorthStar's SSA services will provide unparalleled coverage in tracking resident space objects to enable enhanced decision making by satellite operators," said Stewart Bain, NorthStar CEO. "Making contributions that will benefit future generations is meaningful and fulfilling. I hope this event will inspire more young people to join our movement to make a positive difference.”

“To launch an advanced mission like this with Spire as a mission partner is a real privilege, as they were on our very first orbital mission in 2018,” said Rocket Lab founder and CEO Peter Beck. “To be partnered up again and both still pushing boundaries with new technology and capabilities all these years later is a great full circle moment.”

The launch will mark Spire’s first dedicated launch and its 39th launch campaign. Since its founding, the Company has designed, built and launched more than 170 satellites.
