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.

Assemblyman Tyrone Thompson Scholarship Recipients Join University of Phoenix Spring 2024 Commencement Ceremony

Scholarship recipients LaGeisha Espy and Adam Tucker achieve academic goals with help of Tyrone Thompson Scholarship

University of Phoenix celebrates the accomplishments of two of its graduates, LaGeisha Epsy and Adam Tucker, who began their journey at the University as recipients of the Tyrone Thompson Scholarship. The scholarship, established to honor the memory of the late Nevada Assemblyman Tyrone Thompson, is a full-tuition award for prospective student applicants from Nevada pursuing an undergraduate degree. Epsy and Tucker graduated from the University of Phoenix during its Spring 2024 commencement ceremonies on Saturday, March 2, at Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona, and received their degrees alongside more than 2,500 graduating students from five different countries and 48 U.S. states.

“Adam and LaGeisha have demonstrated grit, determination and optimism throughout their educational journey, following the example the late Assemblyman Tyrone Thompson set. It is a tremendous honor to bear witness to their success," states University of Phoenix National Workforce Director Lauri Perdue. “I am incredibly proud of these two graduates and cannot wait to see what the future holds for them.”

Espy, who received the 2022 Tyrone Thompson Scholarship, began working on her accounting more than 20 years ago but put her education on hold to become a full-time stay at home mother. She knew of Thompson’s legacy in the community, and it inspired her to both volunteer with local youth and to pursue her college education. “Attaining my college degree means so much because I see it as more than a step for personal growth; it's a means to elevate others alongside me,” states Epsy. “I now believe that influencing the lives of future generations is achievable at any age, and my conviction remains strong that the most significant achievements arise in the face of adversity."

Tucker, who left high school to work and eventually earned his GED, picked up his education again when he decided to take courses in the automotive technology program at a local community college and begin working as an auto mechanic. Tucker discovered his passion for the industry and wanted to make an impact through educating others. He decided to enroll at University of Phoenix’s Las Vegas Campus to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Education/Elementary Teacher Education, and the scholarship covered the remaining cost of his tuition.

“For several years, I considered returning to school,” shares Tucker. “When I discovered the Tyrone Thompson scholarship, I knew I had to apply. The scholarship was founded on principles that resonated with me, including the importance of education, mentorship, and service to my community. Throughout my undergraduate studies, I felt consistently supported. My interactions with everyone who represented the university were marked by professionalism. The format of the classes was flexible enough to let me achieve my academic goals without disrupting my everyday life. I have been set up for success by everyone involved in my career as a student, and I am eager to continue as a lifelong learner.”

Nevada Assemblyman Tyrone Thompson, for whom the scholarship was established, was chair of the North Las Vegas Assembly Education Committee when he suddenly passed away in May 2019, at the age of 51. His passing inspired the creation of the Tyrone Thompson Scholarship as a way for the University to honor Thompson for years to come. Thompson, an alum of University of Phoenix, was known as a champion in education, homelessness initiatives, public health issues and employment discrimination. Thompson delivered the commencement for the University in June 2017.

The next in-person commencement ceremony for University of Phoenix is scheduled to take place in Detroit, Michigan, in June.
