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.

Acadia Healthcare Accelerates Access to Care With Uber Health

Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACHC) today announced a collaboration with Uber Health (NYSE: UBER). The two companies are coming together to improve access to life-saving behavioral health care and addiction treatment by providing patients access to transportation, so they can begin treatment quickly and efficiently.

The initial focus is on Acadia’s national network of Comprehensive Treatment Centers (CTCs). CTCs provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT) in combination with counseling and behavioral therapies for those who are struggling with opioid addiction. Launching with 19 facilities across several states, Acadia and Uber Health plan to roll out the program to more facilities to serve additional populations in the future.

“Access to consistent and reliable transportation is a primary barrier to the successful treatment of addiction,” said Dr. Nasser Khan, Group President, Acadia Healthcare CTC. “Working with Uber Health allows Acadia to eliminate this barrier and, in turn, shorten the length of time patients need to wait to begin life-saving treatment. In addition, the collaboration removes financial barriers to transportation access which can be a major roadblock to success in treatment.”

Successful program completion requires patients to stay on track and attend each and every appointment. However, many patients dealing with addiction may lack the resources to arrange and pay for transportation to and from appointments. Through this arrangement, patients who have been approved and are waiting on government-funded transportation, or those in an immediate crisis, can receive a ride from Uber Health to a CTC. Access to Uber Health can decrease the length of time patients wait to begin treatment. It also can mitigate disruption to care for existing patients who are otherwise unable to attend treatment due to transportation barriers.

"Behavioral healthcare services are critical for many patients struggling with addiction; lack of transportation shouldn’t stand in the way of accessing this support,” said Caitlin Donovan, Global Head of Uber Health. “By joining forces with Uber Health, Acadia Healthcare can quickly and easily connect patients with transportation to get the care they need, when they need it—and ultimately help improve patient outcomes at scale.”

At many of its CTC facilities, Acadia has used Uber Health for the past few years to provide transportation for patients. By collaborating at a national level, the companies can easily provide consistent access to vital transportation services at scale, which can lead to improved patient outcomes. The Uber Health platform allows Acadia to deliver care early in the patient’s recovery cycle.
