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 2025 Trending Destinations list includes:

  • BRISBANE, AUSTRALIA - Located between the Gold and Sunshine Coasts, Brisbane offers excellent museums as well as vibrant dining and nightlife.
  • BRITTANY, FRANCE - Distinctive culture, coastal scenery and miles of seaside walking paths like the GR34 trail top the list of reasons to visit the Brittany region.
  • FRANSCHHOEK, SOUTH AFRICA - Franschhoek, the mountain-ringed gem in the Cape Winelands region, is an ideal add-on to a safari vacation with nearly 50 wineries2, farm-to-table restaurants and hiking.
  • KOH SAMUI, THAILAND - 88-square-mile Koh Samui offers a dreamy combo of lush jungle, white sand beaches, and turquoise waters, perfect for active travelers or those looking to relax. The island will be featured on a popular TV show scheduled to air next year and is sure to inspire set-jetting travelers.
  • MACAU, CHINA - Though The Historic Centre of Macau enjoys UNESCO World Heritage status, and the local Cantonese-Portuguese fusion cuisine is a must-try for foodies, the supersized casinos are the reason this densely populated peninsula, known as the “Las Vegas of the East,” boasts a number of award-winning restaurants.
  • MOAB, UTAH, UNITED STATES - As the gateway to Utah’s “Mighty Five” national parks, Moab is a perfect starting point to explore the American Southwest. Travelers come for world-class rafting, mountain biking, and canyon hiking - or simply to bask in the red rock scenery.
  • NIKKO, JAPAN - This tucked away mountain retreat in mostly rural Tochigi prefecture blends elements of Kyoto and Mt. Fuji, with photogenic waterfalls and abundant hiking trails.
  • PAROS, GREECE - Laid-back Paros has become the Greek island of choice for many with a vibrant cultural scene and rocky coastline studded with beaches, secluded coves, and sea caves.
  • SÃO PAULO, BRAZIL - This multi-ethnic city is one of the great cultural destinations of South America and home to rich architectural heritage and some of the continent’s best museums, street art, and homegrown fashion.
  • SUN VALLEY, IDAHO, UNITED STATES - With fewer crowds than other Western ski resorts, Sun Valley appeals to premium travelers and everyday outdoor enthusiasts alike. During the summer months travelers can enjoy trout fishing, whitewater rafting, mountain biking and more.

“We want our Card Members to experience all that travel has to offer,” said Audrey Hendley, President of American Express Travel. “Through our global travel expertise, guides like our annual Trending Destinations list and our lodging programs like The Hotel Collection, we help our Card Members plan all types of trips and inspire them to explore new places. This year, we've added more than 300 new properties in top destinations to The Hotel Collection, so Card Members have even more options for where to stay when they get there.”

A study conducted by American Express found that 72% of Millennial and Gen Z travelers are more likely to book hotels that offer credit card rewards and 70% are interested in a credit card with a collection of hotel benefits across the world3. Knowing that value is a priority for travelers, especially among Millennials and Gen Z travelers, American Express Travel added new benefits and expanded The Hotel Collection to include more properties in destinations our Card Members are visiting. The lodging program has increased its footprint by 40% this year to include over 1,000 hotels and expanded to 50 new destinations. The collection includes upscale hotels located near city centers, popular tourist attractions, great restaurants, and active nightlife. Additionally, when Gold and Platinum Card® Members book two or more nights at these hotels through Amex Travel, they are eligible to receive a room upgrade upon arrival, 12:00 P.M. early check-in, and late check-out up to 4:00 P.M. (all subject to availability and certain room categories are not eligible for upgrade). These benefits are in addition to a complimentary credit valued at $100 to use towards eligible charges, which may include food and beverage, spa, or other on-property charges (eligible charges vary by property).

Five of this year’s Trending Destinations are home to Hotel Collection properties including:

  • Hotel X Brisbane Fortitude Valley is in the heart of Brisbane’s fashion, nightlife, and restaurant hub. The hotel is just minutes from the bars and restaurants of Howard Smith Wharves and the boutiques of James Street.
  • Hotel Barriere Le Grand Hotel Dinard is a beautiful hotel with a prime spot facing St. Malo in Dinard, northeastern Brittany. This elegant hotel dates to the 19th century and is just a 10-minute walk to the beach and promenade.
  • Avant Mar in Paros, Greece is situated on the shore of Piperi Beach and a short walk from Naoussa, a village and harbor filled with shops and al fresco dining.
  • ULUM Moab is a luxury, safari-inspired resort that overlooks Looking Glass Arch and offers a secluded stay with views that extend all the way to Canyonlands National Park.
  • Sun Valley Resort in Sun Valley, Idaho gives guests the best of both worlds with outdoor adventure activities like downhill skiing and hiking trails along with luxury accommodations and signature spa treatments.

When Card Members book these – and any – destinations with Amex Travel, American Express’ massive global footprint and incredible benefits help them make the most of their travel through a network of Travel Consultants in 23 countries who speak 13 languages, over 1,400 airport lounges in 140 countries, dining reservations that can be made through Resy in 30 countries, and over 2,600 properties in 114 countries through the Fine Hotels + Resorts® and The Hotel Collection programs.
