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.

College Raptor Reveals Tenth Annual Hidden Gem Colleges for 2025

Rankings Highlight Exceptional, Under-the-Radar Schools Across the Nation

College Raptor, Citizens’ college planning platform and the most comprehensive college search site, today released its tenth annual “Hidden Gem” rankings, an unmatched list spotlighting excellent, yet lesser-known schools by state and region. The 2025 rankings also include top colleges for in-demand programs, such as AI and Nursing, representing two of today’s fastest-growing and most sought-after career paths.

Hidden Gem rankings shine a light on the highest-rated schools in College Raptor’s directory that are more accessible institutions with strong academic excellence but tend to have a lower application volume. For instance, each Hidden Gem College receives fewer than 5,000 applications per year, has fewer than 7,000 undergraduate students, offers five or more unique majors, and has an acceptance rate at or above 10%.

“College Raptor proudly celebrates a decade of helping students and their families uncover some of the best-kept-secret schools available in higher education today,” said William Staib, Co-Founder and President of College Raptor. “We do the heavy lifting, showcasing colleges most worthy of students’ consideration, so they can more easily explore and find the right academic, financial and social fit.”

This year’s list awards one Hidden Gem college from each state, as well as the District of Columbia, and across the following categories:
