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.

kWh Analytics Leads $2.4M Initiative to Strengthen Solar Asset Resilience With the U.S. Department of Energy

kWh Analytics, a leading provider of Climate Insurance for renewable energy assets, is excited to announce a new, $2.4M partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) through the Materials, Operation, and Recycling of Photovoltaics (MORE PV) Funding Program. This partnership aims to develop innovative approaches to solar PV resilience, focusing on introducing asset resilience measures against natural catastrophes earlier in the asset development lifecycle.

The increasing severity and frequency of damage-causing natural catastrophes, such as hail, hurricanes, and floods, pose a significant threat to solar assets, putting clean energy goals at risk. In today’s environment, developers lack the tools they need to make informed decisions on how to design, build, and operate more resilient facilities; kWh Analytics’ project aims to produce tools to help asset developers address the specific perils their assets are exposed to at every stage in the project lifecycle.

“This award is a testament to both the long-standing partnership between kWh Analytics and the U.S. Energy Department, and our organization’s commitment to advancing the energy transition,” said Jason Kaminsky, CEO of kWh Analytics. “Our deep industry knowledge and unparalleled data give us unique insight into climate-resilient design, construction, and management of renewable energy assets – knowledge that we apply to our underwriting decisions and risk assessment.”

The funding will support several key initiatives, including aggregating real-world renewable energy physical loss data and developing standardized best practices. Project partners include the National Renewable Energy Lab, known for resilience best practice research; DNV, a prominent independent engineer; and lender’s consultant STANCE Renewable Risk Partners.

In the context of solar energy, resilience refers to an asset’s ability to withstand, adapt to, and quickly recover from disruptions caused by extreme weather events or other natural disasters. This includes features such as reinforced mounting systems, hail-resistant panels, and advanced monitoring and response systems. By focusing on resilience, the solar industry aims to ensure the long-term viability and reliability of clean energy infrastructure.

kWh Analytics is committed to connecting researchers and industry experts to the insurance market to foster a collaborative environment for sharing best practices and knowledge. Each year, kWh Analytics publishes its “Solar Risk Assessment,” recognized as the solar industry’s leading report on the evolving landscape of solar generation risk. The report has become a staple read for the solar insurance industry, serving as a guide for investors who recognize the importance of allowing data-based insights to inform the deployment of capital. The MORE PV research award is a further opportunity to work alongside industry experts to advance resiliency measures to mitigate solar generation risks and collectively support the energy transition.

kWh Analytics was selected as a part of the SETO Materials, Operation, and Recycling of Photovoltaics (MORE PV) Funding Program. MORE PV projects address challenges associated with the rapid deployment of PV systems in the United States, including the increasing demands on PV materials, system operation and maintenance, and recycling. kWh Analytics is one of several project partners that will support technology improvements to reduce these challenges with a holistic view of all stages of the PV lifecycle—from the material needs and installation to operation and end of life.
