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.

Cabot Corporation Receives CLEPA Innovation Award 2024 for REPLASBLAK® Universal Circular Black Masterbatches with Certified Sustainable Material

Company selected as top innovator in the green category

Cabot Corporation (NYSE: CBT) has been named a recipient of the CLEPA Innovation Award 2024 as a Top Innovator in the Green category for its REPLASBLAK® universal circular black masterbatches powered by EVOLVE® Sustainable Solutions. Organized by CLEPA, the European Association of Automotive Suppliers, the CLEPA Innovation Awards celebrates groundbreaking innovations that are driving the green and digital transition in Europe. Cabot’s new REPLASBLAK® reUN5285 and REPLASBLAK® reUN5290 solutions have been recognized for being the industry’s first-ever universal circular black masterbatches with International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC PLUS) certified content for use in automotive plastics applications.

The CLEPA Innovation Awards highlight the pivotal contributions of the European automotive supply industry in shaping future mobility. Specifically, the Green category recognizes innovations toward more sustainable and climate-neutral mobility. An international jury of experts, representing academia, industry, and the Research & Innovation community evaluated each innovation based on its level of ambition, market impact and implementation. Winners were announced at an awards ceremony held at Autoworld in Brussels, Belgium.

“We are honored to be recognized by CLEPA for our leadership in advancing sustainable materials innovation,” said Jeff Zhu, executive vice president and president, Carbon & Silica Technologies. “Our universal circular black masterbatches are suitable to meet the needs of automotive plastic compounders and converters seeking third-party certified products that incorporate recycled materials and leverage circular value chains. As such, our innovative solutions are transformative, delivering environmental benefits without compromising performance – which are essential factors as the automotive industry continues to progress toward a more sustainable, lower carbon future.”

Cabot’s REPLASBLAK reUN5285 universal circular black masterbatch and REPLASBLAK reUN5290 universal circular black masterbatch are made from mechanically recycled polymer. These solutions offer up to 45% ISCC PLUS mass balance certified material and nearly 20% greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) reduction compared to a standard black masterbatch. Both grades enable high gloss and high jetness pigmentation, offering superior color performance and mechanical properties similar to a standard universal black masterbatch. This makes the solutions ideal for use in various applications in the automotive segment, including interiors, exterior parts and under-the-hood applications.
