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.

ADDING MULTIMEDIA Divert, Inc. and Feeding America® Leading Together on Innovative Solutions to Fight Hunger and Food Waste

By: via Business Wire

Collaboration brings complementary data-driven solutions and infrastructure to retailers to decrease wasted food and optimize donations

Divert, Inc., an impact technology company on a mission to Protect the Value of Food™, and Feeding America, the largest hunger relief organization in the U.S., are collaborating on an industry-leading initiative to scale complementary data-driven solutions and sustainable infrastructure that optimize food donations and address the food insecurity crisis. Together, the organizations will bring more streamlined and actionable insights to retailers and drive a paradigm shift for how wasted food is managed across the U.S.

Since 2018, Divert and Feeding America have worked hand-in-hand with 13 of the largest food retailers across 38 states to implement forward-thinking food donation solutions and strategies, seeing an increase in food donations as much as 20%. Now, with Divert’s plans to expand its national infrastructure to 30 facilities combined with Feeding America’s network of more than 200 partner food banks, the companies are poised to make their solutions accessible to retailers across the U.S. and solve unsold food at scale.

“Feeding America has been an incredible partner in our shared mission to address food insecurity,” Ryan Begin, CEO and co-founder, Divert. “We have made significant progress together through improved data-driven programs to feed more people in need. With our Integrated Diversion & Energy Facilities expansion roadmap and Feeding America’s vast network of food banks and agency partners, we are uniquely positioned to rapidly scale our collective innovative solutions for retailers across the country.”

Divert collects store-level data on wasted food in its proprietary bins brought back to its facilities from retailers, while Feeding America’s MealConnect platform gathers donation data. By leveraging a combination of these unique solutions, retailers are empowered to identify opportunities to increase donations with greater accuracy, thereby optimizing their food recovery efforts and reducing waste.

In 2023, Feeding America sourced more than 4.99 billion pounds of food, rescuing 2.11 billion pounds of food from retail alone. Divert and Feeding America are making real progress to close this unsold food gap.

“Dedicated partnerships like this can help end hunger in America," said Erika Thiem, Chief Supply Chain Officer at Feeding America. “Divert brings innovative, data-driven solutions; Feeding America brings a national network of food banks and distribution partners. In quickly scaling solutions with retailers, our work together will bring Feeding America closer to its goal of rescuing an additional one billion pounds of food annually.”

The U.S. produces more than 63 million tons of wasted food annually. At the same time, 44 million people in the U.S. face hunger, including one in five children. Approximately 49 million people - that's one in six people in the U.S. - relied on food assistance from charities like Feeding America in 2022. 1

While food recovery initiatives exist across the U.S., challenges and barriers to success remain. The food recovery space is vast and fragmented, and lacks cohesive infrastructure and solutions that can drive widespread adoption and change. Continued innovation and collaboration are needed among like-minded organizations, especially in the face of higher food costs, the elimination of pandemic-backed food support, and the growing dual crises of food insecurity and climate change.
