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. and Blue Diamond Growers Announce Partnership to Transform Almond Processing Byproducts into Renewable Energy

Divert’s new facility in Turlock, California will enable Blue Diamond to convert almond byproducts into renewable energy, bringing the state closer to its climate goals

Divert, Inc., an impact technology company on a mission to Protect the Value of Food™, and Blue Diamond Growers, a farmer-owned cooperative and the world’s leading almond company, today announced a partnership to transform almond processing byproducts into renewable energy. Divert’s advanced technologies and sustainable infrastructure will enable Blue Diamond Growers to turn low-value almond byproducts into renewable energy, while also assisting California in reaching its 2045 net-zero carbon pollution goals.

“We are proud to join forces with a company like Blue Diamond Growers that shares our mission and commitment to sustainability,” said Ryan Begin, CEO and co-founder, Divert. “The organic byproducts from food processing have tremendous value that can be converted into renewable energy to power our communities. With California being the largest food manufacturer in the U.S., there is a real opportunity for the state to adopt the technologies and infrastructure for food processing that will have a positive impact on the climate crisis. We applaud Blue Diamond for being at the forefront of the industry in implementing solutions to better our world.”

For decades, Blue Diamond and the almond industry have innovated ways to use all parts of the almond, leading to creations like almond flour, almond oil and almond protein powder. Divert’s and Blue Diamond’s partnership allows for this innovation to continue using almond processing byproducts. The material will be converted at Divert’s Integrated Diversion & Energy Facility in Turlock, California into two beneficial byproducts - renewable energy to supply local homes and businesses, as well as soil amendment that allows for the nutrients to return to farmland thereby supporting further food growth.

“Blue Diamond’s long history of furthering the use of almonds and almond byproducts is an important part of our sustainability story and why our almonds have a record of very low waste,” said Dan Sonke, Head of Sustainability at Blue Diamond Growers. “This partnership with Divert is a way to continue our legacy of putting resources to their best and highest value for our farmer-owners and community.”

In April 2023, Divert broke ground on its state-of-the-art facility in Turlock, the heart of agricultural production in the U.S. Once fully operational this year, the facility will be able to process 100,000 tons of wasted food each year from food manufacturers and other companies, and produce enough renewable energy to supply roughly 3,000 homes each year.

The facility will also help California food manufacturers and retailers comply with organic waste requirements in accordance with the state’s Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383) regarding organic waste reduction. This legislation requires large food waste generators to divert food waste from landfills through waste prevention or donation, and encourages the use of anaerobic digestion to create renewable energy.
