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.

Passport to Paris offers a first-of-its-kind “watch to unlock” capability for Xfinity Rewards members who watch select live coverage of the Olympics on NBCUniversal’s broadcast and cable networks, as well as streaming on Peacock, with digital passport stamps commemorating the events. Customers will unlock bigger and better rewards the more they watch and interact, and earn stamps in their digital passport through interactive quizzes and polls, which can be redeemed for rewards online or in the app. As an added benefit, the first 20,000 participants will unlock a limited-edition Olympic Games Paris 2024 pin and passport stamp: a platform first for pairing digital and physical rewards.

“One of the great benefits of being a Xfinity Rewards member is exclusive access to new products and features like Passport to Paris,” said Pooja Kapadia, Vice President of Customer Loyalty and Rewards. “The Paris Olympics are a great opportunity to create a first-of-its-kind experience centered around the most anticipated event of the year.”

Passport to Paris is easily accessible through The Olympics hub on Xfinity X1. Scanning a QR code will drive customers to the Xfinity Rewards portal where they can activate the experience and start playing. Xfinity Rewards is free for Xfinity customers. Sign up is easy and fast in the Xfinity App or online at xfinity.com/rewards.

Passport to Paris joins a host of other new features and functionality Xfinity is rolling out for The Olympic Games, including enhanced 4K, interactive athlete experiences, personalized playlists, and more. It’s all part of a growing list of platform enhancements aimed at capturing the shifting landscape in entertainment and sports.

“We believe the home’s largest screen will evolve to meet the needs of the customer, which is why we’re building and testing new features such as Passport to Paris that embrace all the momentum in live sports, and strategically set the stage for new opportunities in e-commerce and blockchain enabled collecting,” said Piers Lingle, Senior Vice President, Emerging Product and Technology at Comcast. “We see a wide-open opportunity to leverage the power of our Entertainment OS platform to inject more interaction into the TV experience in contextual and simple ways.”
