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.

Wolters Kluwer: Leading U.S. economists anticipate a slowdown in GDP growth, no recession

Wolters Kluwer Blue Chip Economic Indicators shows 93% of economists expect 1st rate cut to occur in September

Wolters Kluwer has published the August 2024 issue of its Blue Chip Economic Indicators survey, which finds a majority (79%) of the panel’s 49 leading economists predicting that the U.S. economy has yet to feel the full restraint of earlier Fed rate hikes. However, the survey also indicates broad consensus that the economy will circumvent a recession to achieve the desired “soft landing” following an initial slowdown in GDP growth.

Since 1976, Wolters Kluwer Blue Chip Economic Indicators has been the leading monthly forecast sourced from an expert panel of economists that are employed by some of America's largest and most respected manufacturers, banks, insurance companies.

Highlights include:

  • Most economists (93%) expect the first Fed rate cut to occur in September, up from 55% last month.
  • Only 17% of economists believe that the first rate cut will equate to 50 basis points (bps), while the vast majority (83%) anticipate a cut of 25bps.
  • Economists anticipate that GDP growth will slow to 1.5% by next quarter before gradually rebounding to an above-trend 2.1% in the fourth quarter of next year.
  • The consensus forecast places only a 28% probability that inflation readings will turn up again in the second half of 2024.

Each month’s Blue Chip Economic Indicators survey highlights the predictions of each individual panel member as well as a consensus – or average – forecast for the direction of variables such as real gross domestic product (GDP), consumer price index and the unemployment rate.
