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.

£3.5 million contract to lead to a 6,500 square-meter solar installation with close to 1 million kWh of clean energy generated annually.

Ameresco, Inc., (NYSE: AMRC), a leading cleantech integrator specialising in energy efficiency and renewable energy, today announced the award of a contract to implement a leading-edge thin film photovoltaic (PV) solution atop the iconic London Stadium. The contract, valued at approximately £3.5 million, includes comprehensive operations and maintenance (O&M) services for the duration of twenty-five years. It forms the vast majority of a £4.35m climate action investment at the stadium.

Renowned as the venue for the 2012 Olympic & Paralympic Games, London Stadium is now a multi-sport venue. It is the home of UK Athletics, hosts Concerts & Major League Baseball matches, and is home to West Ham United Football Club in the Premier League.

London Stadium stands as a symbol of athletic achievement and community engagement in the global city. The installation is projected to generate approximately 0.85 million kWh of clean energy annually, contributing to the stadium's sustainability efforts to reach net zero carbon emissions.

There are unique challenges posed by the London Stadium's membrane roof. Energy generation would be restricted if conventional framed solar PV arrays were used due to weight restrictions, high wind loading, and complex shading patterns, necessitating an innovative approach.

Ameresco's solution utilises ultra-thin solar panels complemented by dynamic SolarEdge optimizers and inverters, meticulously designed to maximise energy generation levels while seamlessly integrating with the stadium's architectural constraints.

Graham Gilmore, Chief Executive of LS185, said: “We are committed to becoming one of the most sustainable live event venues in the world. This investment means that we can drive down our carbon footprint and become the venue of choice for artists and event owners who are serious about sustainability. This ambitious large-scale investment will reduce our energy costs, but most importantly our carbon footprint. We are proud to take the lead in tackling climate change, and especially pleased to be able to power concerts and other event days from energy generated on-site.”

Mark Apsey MBE, Senior Vice President for Ameresco UK, said: “Contributing to London Stadium’s legacy and revolutionising its energy infrastructure with state-of-the-art solar technology is an immense honour. The cutting-edge thin film PV solution will contribute to a greener future of this iconic venue by generating close to 1 million kWh of clean energy annually, the equivalent of powering over 250 homes.”

Despite the project's complexity, Ameresco assures minimal disruption to ongoing site activities, employing meticulous planning and staged panel lifts to prevent roof overload and ensure safety for stadium goers, teams, and staff.
