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.

Care.com Introduces Spending Accounts to Help Employers Mitigate the Cost of Care for Employees

Care.com, the world’s largest online platform for finding and managing family care, today announced a Care Spending Account product that gives employers a flexible solution to financially support their employees with the ongoing costs of care, whether for children, seniors, pets or themselves. Offered through Care for Business, the Company’s enterprise segment, the product joins an existing portfolio of workplace solutions which include premium Care.com memberships, subsidized backup care for children and adults, care specialists, discounts on everyday essentials and more.

The Care Spending Account will enable employers to make a monthly or annual lump sum contribution to each employee’s care expenses. Employers will have the flexibility to determine which categories of care are covered by the Care Spending Account funds.

The development of this new product reflects the growing recognition that working families cannot function without care and the growing reality that they are looking to their employers for help shouldering the costs. Care.com’s 2024 Future of Benefits Report released earlier this year underscored these trends among employees: cash subsidies for care were the second most wanted family care benefit overall and 30% ranked the benefit as their top choice among the family care benefits not currently offered to them but would be used if available.

In making the announcement, Brad Wilson, CEO of Care.com, said, “Conversations about the cost of care have moved from the living room to the conference room. Across industries employers are looking for ways to make care more accessible and affordable for their employees and they are looking for holistic solutions that allow them to support their full workforce. The introduction of the Care Spending Account product is a natural expansion of our suite of family care benefits, among the most comprehensive in the industry. Benefits carrier consolidation is the buzz phrase we are hearing from HR leaders, and we are thrilled to offer our clients an end-to-end solution.”

The Care Spending Account product will be powered by First Dollar, a technology company that provides flexible infrastructure for health spending benefits.
