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.

AEM Forecasts a Highly Active 2024 Hurricane Season

By: via Business Wire

Significantly Increased Hurricane Activity Expected, with Elevated Risks for Gulf Coast and Atlantic Seaboard

AEM, the essential source for environmental insights, today released its 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season Outlook, warning of a possible intense season ahead. The company's forecast predicts an 84% chance of above-normal activity, with 23 named storms, 11 hurricanes, and 6 major hurricanes expected—a significant increase from the 1991-2020 average.

AEM's outlook is based on a combination of advanced machine learning models and analog year analysis, considering key climate factors such as the expected development of La Niña conditions and warmer-than-average sea surface temperatures in the Atlantic. These conditions are expected to contribute to a more active hurricane season.

The forecast also includes a projected Accumulated Cyclone Energy (ACE) index of 215, with a range of 180-250. ACE is a measure of the overall intensity and duration of tropical storms and hurricanes during a given season. This prediction further underscores the potential for an exceptionally active season, as the average ACE value from 1950 to 2023 is 106.

"Our forecast paints a concerning picture for the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season," said Mark Hoekzema, Chief Meteorologist at AEM. "The confluence of La Niña and abnormally warm Atlantic waters creates a breeding ground for hurricane development. We are strongly urging residents in high-risk areas along the Gulf Coast and Atlantic Seaboard to stay vigilant and prepare accordingly."

According to AEM's analysis, several regions face a higher risk of impact from tropical systems this season. The Gulf Coast, particularly Texas and Louisiana, could see an increased likelihood of landfalling storms. Additionally, the Atlantic coast, especially the Southeast and Florida, may also be at elevated risk due to the projected steering patterns and warm ocean temperatures.

The company's forecast also draws comparisons to previous active hurricane seasons, such as 2005 and 2017, which saw 28 and 17 named storms, respectively. The 2005 season, which included Hurricane Katrina, saw an ACE value of 250, while the 2017 season, featuring Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria, recorded an ACE of 225.

The full hurricane forecast can be viewed on AEM's website via the webinar titled "Preparing for the 2024 Hurricane Season."
