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.

Sarofim has informed the Board of his intention to retire as a director at the end of his current term, expiring May 1, 2024.

As Principal and Director of Life Sciences for Sterling Bay, the national real estate investment and development firm, McKinney oversees relationships with the scientific, academic, corporate, tech, and governmental sectors involved in the life sciences ecosystem. She also leads the strategy to expand Sterling Bay’s footprint in life sciences nationwide.

McKinney holds a Doctorate from the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health, a Master of Public Health with certificates in Managed Care and Health Care Administration from Benedictine University, and a Bachelor of Arts in Biology from Brandeis University.

“We’re pleased to welcome Suzet to our board,” said Joseph P. Lacher, Jr., President, CEO and Chairman of Kemper’s Board of Directors. “Her leadership of large organizations, business experience, strategic execution, and deep familiarity with the Chicago business community make her an excellent addition to Kemper’s board, and we look forward to the benefits of her perspective and contributions.”

“It’s an exciting time for Kemper as they move forward and I’m pleased to join the board to help advance the strategic priorities of the company,” said McKinney. “I believe in Kemper’s commitment to serve the underserved and look forward to working with my fellow board members and the talented senior leadership team in support of that mission.”

Sarofim was elected to Kemper’s Board in May 2013, and has served on the Board’s Investment Committee. He currently serves as Chairman of Fayez, Sarofim & Co., a leader in the financial services and investment management industry. His community and charitable commitments include serving on the Board of Trustees for The Brown Foundation and Baylor College of Medicine, a member of the Advisory Committee for MD Anderson Cancer Center, and as the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Sarofim Foundation.

“Kemper has been very fortunate to have Chris’s leadership on our Board for nearly 11 years, and we thank him for his dedicated service and outstanding contributions,” said Lacher. “His investment management expertise has been of great value to the Board, and his financial market and investment banking experience has been beneficial to the Board. He’s been a highly effective director, and we extend our gratitude and best wishes to Chris and his family.”

“It’s been an honor serving on Kemper’s board over the last 11 years, and I couldn’t be prouder of what we’ve accomplished,” Sarofim said. “I leave with the utmost confidence in both the leadership team and the company’s prospects for the future, and know the outstanding Board and management will continue to successfully execute on Kemper’s strategic intent.”
