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.

NRG and Reliant Support Houston-Area Food Banks Impacted by Hurricane Beryl with $100,000 Commitment

— 10 local food-focused nonprofits receive $10,000 to help with food supply, weather preparation and resiliency —

NRG and Reliant are providing $100,000 to local food banks and nonprofits to support Houstonians in need following Hurricane Beryl. The storm’s significant impact on the Greater Houston community brought into focus how much our neighbors depend on these organizations, which continue to experience increased demand. Ten nonprofits will each receive $10,000.

“Many smaller neighborhood food pantries were hit hard by Hurricane Beryl – either from the tremendous need for food or from being impacted by the storm itself with power outages, wind damage and flooding. As a result, these pantries now need to restock their food supply,” said Rasesh Patel, president, NRG Consumer. “Houston is our hometown, and it is during times like these when we must come together to support our neighbors. With this $100,000 commitment, we are supporting critical organizations that provide a lifesaving service for vulnerable populations so they can continue to make a difference – one meal at a time.”

NRG and Reliant have longstanding relationships with a variety of food banks and food-focused nonprofits throughout the Houston area. In addition to the monetary donation, NRG employees will also participate in volunteer events with some of the recipient organizations in the coming weeks to help with needs such as sorting and stocking food or packing meals.

Organizations each receiving $10,000 include:

“Houstonians are no strangers to hurricanes and severe weather events, but the effects of Hurricane Beryl were especially difficult for vulnerable residents, who are more severely impacted by loss of food, wages and childcare,” said Beth Harp, CEO, Kids’ Meals, Inc. “Our longstanding partnership with NRG and Reliant has helped Kids’ Meals grow to what the organization is today. With this donation, we can take extra care to ensure that in the event of another storm, we are sufficiently prepared and can continue to support families with the resources they need.”

This announcement is part of NRG’s $2 million commitment from earlier this month that provides near- and long-term disaster relief following the immediate devastation of Hurricane Beryl. That commitment includes $1.3 million to support customers and increase funding to the CARE (Community Assistance by Reliant Energy) program, which provides bill-pay assistance through social service agencies. The remaining funding directly supported the four-county Hurricane Beryl Recovery Fund, local charitable programs and impacted NRG employees.
