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.

C.H. Robinson Announces Agreement to Sell its European Surface Transportation Business to sennder Technologies GmbH

Driving Strategic Focus on its Core Business

Global logistics leader, C.H. Robinson Worldwide, Inc. (“C.H. Robinson” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CHRW) announced today that it has made the strategic decision to sell its European Surface Transportation business (EST) to sennder Technologies GmbH, the leading digital road freight forwarder in Europe (“sennder”). This move is part of the Company's enterprise strategy to get fit, fast and focused and to drive focus on profitable growth in its four core modes – North American truckload and less-than-truckload and global ocean and air – as the engines to create the most value for its stakeholders.

“To win, we need to focus on what sets us apart and build upon our competitive advantages,” said C.H. Robinson President and CEO Dave Bozeman. “Europe remains an important strategic market for us, and we are committed to our global forwarding and managed services presence there. This clarity of investment in the region is important for the long-term success of our business and employees as well as the value and impact we can offer our customers and carriers. I am convinced that sennder will be a great home for the EST business and will provide good continuity of service to EST customers.”

As an employer of choice in Europe and a global, industry-leading logistics provider, C.H. Robinson remains focused on delivering customer value through exceptional service and innovative solutions from its European Global Forwarding and TMC teams. The Company will continue to invest in key trade lanes, products, and technology within the region.

Through this transaction, the EST operations of C.H. Robinson will become part of sennder, unlocking significant growth opportunities for both companies and delivering improved service offerings and digital capabilities.

David Nothacker, CEO of sennder, said, “This acquisition will be pivotal in advancing sennder’s roadmap. With its vision to accelerate global trade to deliver products and goods that drive the world’s economy, C.H. Robinson aligns strongly with sennder’s mission and values to create an efficient and sustainable road freight network in Europe. We are deeply impressed by the European Surface Transportation team from C.H. Robinson, and with our combined business and enhanced talent pool, we can deliver substantial growth and operational scale, accelerating our European expansion and increasing network density and digital capabilities for the benefit of carriers, shippers, and the wider industry. We are excited to welcome the EST team, and embark on the next chapter of sennder’s journey.”

C.H. Robinson is working closely with all groups to ensure a smooth transition that maintains the high standards of service that both C.H. Robinson and sennder's customers and employees have come to expect.

EST has been a subsidiary of C.H. Robinson since 1994 and provides transportation and logistics services, including truckload and LTL transportation services, across Europe.

The closing of the transaction is subject to certain customary conditions and regulatory approvals and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024. C.H. Robinson will not have further comments until its second quarter 2024 earnings conference call that is scheduled for Wednesday, July 31, 2024 at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC acted as C.H. Robinson’s financial advisor and HVG Law B.V. acted as its legal advisor. Terms of the transaction are not disclosed.
