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.

The Container Store Continues to Bolster Custom Spaces Offering With Launch of Decor+ by Elfa

Elevates Customer Favorite Elfa line to include new innovative features

The Container Store (NYSE: TCS), the nation’s leading retailer of organizing solutions, custom spaces, and in-home services, has expanded its modular, wall-hanging Custom Spaces offering with the launch of Decor+ by Elfa. This expansion of the customer favorite Elfa line comes shortly after the launch of Garage+ by Elfa which was introduced in late 2023 and exceeded initial sales expectations.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20240605581808/en/

“Expanding our assortment so that we are meeting the needs and desires of today’s consumer is one of the key elements to increasing our Custom Spaces business to 60% of annual sales and capitalizing on the $6 billion addressable Custom Spaces market over time,” said Satish Malhotra, CEO and President of The Container Store. “We expect Decor+ to resonate well with customers, giving them elevated options like LED lighting, back panels that give their space a built-in look and the fully enclosed drawers they have been asking for at an exceptional value and in a system that they can DIY or have professionally installed. We believe the unique proposition of Decor+ paired with our complementary organizing solutions gives us a competitive market advantage and look forward to seeing how customers respond.”

Decor+ by Elfa is made of steel and solid birch wood and is the same wall-hanging adjustable framework Elfa customers know and love, but even stronger. Ideal for closet and living spaces, new features include LED lighting, fully enclosed full-extension drawers, and solid wood drawer fronts and trim. Customers also have the option to include back panels to give their space a complete, built-in look and take the entire space with them if they move. Like the rest of the retailer’s Elfa assortment, customers have the option of free in-store, virtual or in-home custom design, to shop individual components, or to purchase a pre-designed space. Professional installation is available if customers do not want to install their space themselves.

Decor+ by Elfa is now available in all store locations of The Container Store and on containerstore.com. A full marketing campaign to support the launch is slated for fall 2024.
