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.

Avangrid’s DEI and HR Leadership Teams Launch New Effort Following Elevation of Direct Reporting to CEO

By: via Business Wire

Launch “Listen, Understand and Enable” conversations with leaders to continue fostering an Avangrid with everyone, that benefits everyone

Avangrid’s commitment to building a diverse and inclusive workplace has led to significant advancements over the past years and set the standard for the energy sector

Avangrid surpassing national averages with nearly 39% of women in executive positions, and increasing diversity in executive positions by 75% from 2021 numbers

After recently elevating its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) team to report directly to the CEO, Avangrid, Inc. (NYSE: AGR) is launching a new initiative to advance its DEI efforts across the organization. Newly appointed Senior Vice President of DEI, Talent and Innovation, Ignacio Estella, will hold “Listen, Understand and Enable” conversations with leaders across Avangrid. This initiative stems from a recent meeting between Avangrid CEO Pedro Azagra, Estella, and other senior leaders from People and Organizations where they discussed ways that Avangrid can continue to build a culture of inclusion, safety and professional development.

“At Avangrid, we are fortunate to have leaders who are not only exceptionally skilled but also deeply committed to continuous improvement,” said Pedro Azagra, Avangrid CEO. “Our recent leadership meeting at our headquarters reinforced my belief that we have the right team in place to continue delivering excellence and to navigate any challenges ahead. As a proud member of the Iberdrola Group, we see DEI as fundamental to our success. I look forward to hearing the insights from our ‘Listen, Enable and Understand’ discussions on how we can continue improving Avangrid for all.”

“One of the most important responsibilities I have in my role is to listen,” said Estella. “By speaking with leaders from across Avangrid, we will gather feedback from every corner of our businesses. These insights will ensure that we are leading by outcomes to enable an Avangrid with everyone, that benefits everyone.”

“These sessions are critical to better understand the strengths, barriers and opportunities for growth, and to move forward into our future with a more diverse, equitable and inclusive organization,” said Liberna Charles, senior vice president of Talent Management and DEI.

Avangrid’s continuing commitment to DEI efforts has led to significant advancements over the past years and set the standard for the energy sector. Energy is one of the least gender diverse sectors in the global economy. According to an S&P Global Commodity Insights analysis of publicly traded companies in the U.S. and Canada, women make up 21.7% of all executive positions. Avangrid, however, is well-ahead of this figure, and has already surpassed its 2025 target of having 35% of women in executive positions. Today, Avangrid has an executive leadership team made-up of 38.5% women, representing a nearly 80% increase from the numbers reported three years ago. In addition, by the end of 2023, people of color represented almost 30% of Avangrid’s executive positions. This represents a 75% increase from the company’s reported numbers three years ago.
