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.

The University of Phoenix College of Doctoral Studies has announced the winners of its 2024 Dissertation of the Year Award. All winners and nominees will be recognized at the university’s annual Knowledge Without Boundaries (KWB) Research Summit on October 17, 2024. The Dissertation of the Year winners will receive a certificate commemorating their hard work and all nominees are invited to present their research at the summit.

“Completing the dissertation is a seminal event for our practitioner doctoral candidates and this recognition offers an opportunity to celebrate exceptional dissertation quality,” said Mansureh Kebritchi, Ph.D., chair, Center for Educational and Instructional Technology Research (CEITR). “Recognizing dissertation excellence honors the work of these new doctors, the contributions of faculty, and uplifts the doctoral candidate community.”

The 2024 Dissertation of the Year Award Winners are:

  • April LaFontaine, DHA, Doctor of Health Administration, for their dissertation, Can training reduce emergency department nurse burnout: A qualitative exploratory case study. Chair: Charles Elliott, DHS.

“Reflecting on the incredible educational journey that has shaped me personally and professionally, it has been challenging yet rewarding, as it allowed me to explore the critical issue of nurse burnout and reignited my passion for continued research and the pursuit of knowledge,” shares LaFontaine. “I am grateful for the support of my committee members, mentors, peers, and family through this journey, and I am deeply honored to have my dissertation recognized – it inspires me to continue advocating for positive change in healthcare and to further contribute to meaningful advancements in our field.”

The Dissertation of the Year award program was developed to recognize excellence in dissertation work among University of Phoenix doctoral students. Doctoral students who successfully defended their dissertation within the past year and were nominated by their chairs or committee members were eligible for the award. A total of 33 high-quality candidates were nominated this year. From that pool, three winners were identified after rigorous evaluation through a double-blind peer-reviewed process, with each nomination reviewed by at least two experts in the field.
