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.

ReposiTrak Traceability Network Grows to 4,000 Suppliers, Attracting Retailers and Wholesalers for Fast, Easy FSMA 204 Compliance

Retailers and wholesalers find that many or most of their suppliers are traceability-ready, as the industry prepares with ReposiTrak

ReposiTrak (NYSE: TRAK), the world’s largest food traceability and regulatory compliance network, leveraging its established inventory management and out-of-stock reduction SaaS platform, has reached a major growth milestone, welcoming 4,000 food suppliers to the ReposiTrak Traceability Network® (RTN). Each supplier is in the process of connecting to RTN to share data as required under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s FSMA 204 food traceability final rule, making traceability easier for retailers and wholesalers.

“The industry is waking up to the fact that traceability is here. We can tell, because we’re doing it, while others are just talking about it,” said ReposiTrak Chairman and CEO Randy Fields. “Through RTN, we establish a connection with each supplier that enables them to share ALL of the FDA-required traceability data and not just what’s on the label. Suppliers can then share this data with any of their retailer or wholesaler customers, which makes it a practical solution for everyone involved.”

With a network of this size, retailers or wholesalers who are new to RTN find that many of their suppliers are already onboarding. The suppliers in the queue to connect to RTN represent each category on the FDA’s Food Traceability List (FTL) and beyond. Once connected to RTN, suppliers can efficiently exchange intricate, FDA-required Key Data Elements (KDEs) with any of their retailer or wholesaler customers, ensuring proactive compliance before FSMA 204 enforcement begins January 20, 2026. The onboarding process for suppliers is entirely automated, no new hardware or software is required, and suppliers can share data with an unlimited number of in-network customers for one low, flat fee.

Suppliers, retailers and wholesalers interested in learning more about food traceability and the ReposiTrak Traceability Network should contact ReposiTrak Chief Customer Officer Derek Hannum at dhannum@repositrak.com.
