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.

Divert, Inc. Launches Food Waste Legislative Tracker to Accelerate Progress Against the Wasted Food Crisis

Released in partnership with the Zero Food Waste Coalition and the Harvard Law School Food Law and Policy Clinic, the tool empowers decision-makers, policymakers, and consumers to influence in-progress, state-level food waste legislation

Divert, Inc., an impact technology company on a mission to Protect the Value of Food™, announced today the release of the Food Waste Legislative Tracker to provide insight into in-progress and existing wasted food policy issues across the U.S. Created in partnership with the Zero Food Waste Coalition (ZFWC) and the Harvard Law School Food Law and Policy Clinic (FLPC), the comprehensive tool will serve to facilitate industry-wide collaboration, advocacy, and engagement around state-level food waste prevention, recovery, and recycling policies.

“For the past 17 years, Divert has been at the forefront of driving collaboration and solutions to accelerate our collective progress against the wasted food crisis,” said Ryan Begin, CEO and co-founder, Divert. “Food waste legislation is vast and constantly evolving. Too often we see that food industry decision-makers and everyday citizens find out about relevant legislation too late in the process to have an effective role in shaping policy before being signed into law. Together with our partners at ZFWC and FLPC, we are committed to providing a tool that not only informs, but also enables stakeholders across the industry to enact real change.”

While existing resources and tools are available on the food waste legislation already signed into law, the Food Waste Legislative Tracker is unique in that it encompasses information on in-progress state legislation. In doing so, the tool empowers decision-makers, policymakers, and consumers with the knowledge they need to understand and influence food legislation before it is already implemented. The interactive database provides an overview of wasted food prevention, food rescue, and food waste recycling bills in each state, and includes the following:

  • Detailed insights into policies from all 50 states
  • Issue areas including organic waste bans, organic waste by-product procurement, food recovery, and date labeling
  • Summaries of bill content
  • Status updates on each bill tracked

“Providing up-to-date information on bills that are working their way through state legislatures to tackle the issue of food waste is just one of the ways that the Zero Food Waste Coalition is providing tools to accelerate the momentum towards meeting our national goal of reducing food waste by 50% by 2030,” said Heather Latino, Clinical Instructor at the Harvard Law School Food Law and Policy Clinic. “Resources like this support our coalition members who are on the ground implementing solutions to food waste. They know first-hand what policy opportunities and barriers exist in their communities and can use the tracker to engage in their state’s legislative process to replicate or drive supportive policy solutions.”

The Food Waste Legislative Tracker will be updated on a quarterly basis. For more information and for access to the tool, please click here.
