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.

The Hartford And Active Minds Collaborate To Bring Mental Health Exhibit To U.S. College Campuses

Insurer responds to youth mental health crisis by supporting nonprofit’s national tour of Send Silence Packing® in 2024 and 2025

The Hartford, a leading provider of employee benefits, and Active Minds, a leading mental health nonprofit organization, are expanding their partnership to bring the award-winning Send Silence Packing® exhibit to more than 100 U.S. college and university campuses in 2024 and 2025. Announcing the expanded partnership during National Suicide Prevention Month, Active Minds released new data that shows 76% of Send Silence Packing attendees supported their own well-being with information from the exhibit and 70% have supported their friends and family.

“No family, neighborhood, or business remains untouched by today’s mental health crisis that is claiming the lives of far too many youth and young adults,” said The Hartford’s Chairman and CEO Christopher Swift. “We believe that education is the antidote to stigma blocking care, and a collective community response to this health emergency must include young adults as essential partners. We are honored to partner with Active Minds to bring their powerful exhibit to communities in need to increase mental health awareness, inspire hope, and save lives.”

Send Silence Packing features more than 100 backpacks with the mental health stories of 100 individuals centering on themes of loss, survival, and resilience. At the event, mental health professionals provide attendees with information, encouraging youth and young adults to foster open conversations about mental health, share resources, and reduce stigma.

“For decades, we have amplified the voices of young people facing mental health challenges,” said Alison Malmon, the founder and executive director of Active Minds. “We hope that by sharing these powerful stories of loss and survival, we can inspire communities nationwide to take action, drive meaningful conversations, and provide critical support to those in need. Together, we can break the silence and create a culture where mental health is openly discussed and prioritized.”

The fall 2024 Send Silence Packing tour is slated to stop in 23 cities across nine states, reaching an estimated 375,000 students.

With The Hartford’s support, Active Minds will focus in 2025 on bringing Send Silence Packing to youth and young adults with a critical need for additional mental health support, such as Black, Hispanic and LGBTQ+ students. According to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), suicide rates are increasing faster among Black adolescents than any other racial and ethnic group. CDC data also shows nearly half (41%) of LGBTQ+ teens seriously considered suicide during the previous 12 months, compared to just 13% of cisgender and heterosexual students.

Partnered on Prevention

With a shared focus on prevention and action, The Hartford and Active Minds announced a partnership earlier this year to provide direct support to next-gen workers and energize the next generation of mental health advocates. Together, they hosted Send Silence Packing at the Connecticut State Capitol this past April. In addition, they have launched a new digital guide that helps young adults navigate mental health resources in the workplace and created a career path workbook for the advocates attending Active Minds national conference in early August.

The collaboration with Active Minds is The Hartford’s latest initiative in a multi-year effort to change the culture around mental health in the workplace.
