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.

ERI Achieves ISO 27001 Certification, Demonstrating Commitment to Highest Level of Information Management Security

By: via Business Wire

ERI Becomes First ITAD Company to be both SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 Certified

ERI, the nation’s largest fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company, announced today that it has successfully achieved ISO 27001:2022 [ISO/IEC 27001] certification, a globally recognized standard for information security management systems.

The ISO 27001 certification is awarded to organizations that meet stringent criteria for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving information security management practices. The certification is a testament to ERI’s commitment to maintaining the highest standards of information security for customers, partners and stakeholders.

“Achieving ISO 27001 certification further demonstrates ERI’s ongoing commitment to security, data protection and the responsible recycling of all electronic devices,” said John Shegerian, ERI’s Chairman and CEO. “Our partners and customers can feel 100% confident that we have made and continue to make every investment and operational protocol to establish and maintain the highest level of security and compliance in the industry. Our successful ISO 27001 certification application and process are proof that our systems and controls are state-of-the-art for handling data and can be fully trusted every step of the way.”

The ISO 27001 certification also arrives on the heels of ERI successfully completing its SOC 2 Type II audit once again this year, making ERI the first and only SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 certified ITAD & e-waste recycler in the industry.

ERI also recently received the highest average star rating from customers (4.5 out if 5) in Compliance Standards LLC’s 2024 ITAD Reputation Ratings report, which gathers feedback from customers of the 30 leading US-based ITAD companies that serve enterprise-class clients in the United States.

“With businesses and public sector organizations experiencing damaging data losses and security breaches, service providers that receive ISO 27001 certification and take concrete measures to solidify their data security practices, such as ERI, will inevitably maintain or even gain competitive advantage with attentive clients,” said David Daoud, Principal Analyst and President at Compliance Standards LLC. “Furthermore, such certification is evidence of a practice within ERI that will primarily benefit clients who are eager to thwart data breaches and avoid non-compliance with a growing body of regulations and laws. ERI’s ISO 27001 certification is no surprise considering the company’s business culture that favors process improvements and the adoption of best practices. This commitment helps ERI achieve some of the best scores in the ITAD industry in the United States, with excellent feedback from both its customers and its employees, based on Compliance Standards’ research.”

ERI is also ISO 14001, ISO 9001 and ISO 45001 certified and is a long-time dual R2 and e-steward certified organization, demonstrating the highest bar of compliance for both data security and environmental responsibility.

ERI is the largest fully integrated IT and electronics asset disposition provider and cybersecurity-focused hardware destruction company in the United States. ERI is certified at the highest level by all leading environmental and data security oversight organizations to de-manufacture, recycle, and refurbish every type of electronic device in an environmentally responsible manner. It is the first and only company in its industry to achieve carbon neutrality at all its facilities nationwide, and the first to achieve SOC 2 Type II certification for security and data protection. ERI has the capacity to process more than a billion pounds of electronic waste annually at its eight certified locations, serving every zip code in the United States. ERI’s mission is to protect people, the planet and privacy. For more information about e-waste recycling and ERI, call 1-800-ERI-DIRECT or visit https://eridirect.com.
