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 Container Store Successfully Completes Financial Restructuring

Emerges from Chapter 11 Process with Bolstered Capital Structure, Well Positioned for Growth

Company to Continue to Provide High-Quality Custom Spaces, Organizing Solutions, and In-Home Services to Customers

The Container Store Group, Inc. (“The Container Store” or “the Company”), the nation’s leading retailer of organizing solutions, custom spaces, and in-home services, today announced that the Company has successfully completed its financial restructuring process and emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The Company has implemented its Plan of Reorganization, confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court on January 24, 2025.

The Company achieved the objectives it set for this process, including refinancing short-term debt, significantly reducing previous long-term debt obligations, accessing $40 million in new financing, and modifying its asset-backed lending facility to add $40 million in upsized capacity. Additionally, the Company continued to operate as usual, meeting its obligations to vendors, employees, and customers throughout the process. The Container Store is now a private company, under the ownership of its supportive lenders, with a healthier balance sheet that positions the Company for profitable growth.

“This is a new chapter in our journey as a healthier company well positioned to drive strategic growth initiatives forward. With our restructuring process now behind us, we have renewed energy and excitement to deliver for our customers,” said Satish Malhotra, Chief Executive Officer and President of The Container Store. “We are focused on optimizing our business, enhancing our portfolio of organizing solutions and services, and continuously improving the customer experience. I am grateful to our employees and vendor partners for their dedication throughout this process, to our valued customers for their support, and to our new owners for their belief in our business.”

The Container Store has created a dedicated website for stakeholders to get information at www.futureforcontainerstore.com.
