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.

KinderCare’s Champions Program Announces Summer 2025 Schedule

Increasing demand for school-age summer programs leads to record number of Champ Camps nationwide

As school-age students around the country return to their classrooms after winter break, families know it’s time to think ahead to how their children will spend summer break. To help families plan ahead for out-of-school time, Champions, which operates more than 1,000 before- and after-school programs nationwide, opened enrollment for their 2025 Champ Camp summer camp schedule.

Champions is part of KinderCare Learning Companies’ (NYSE: KLC) family of brands. KLC is one of the nation’s leading private providers of high-quality early childhood education by center capacity, serving thousands of children in 40 states and the District of Columbia.

“While schools may take a break during the summer, we know many families need continued support. This can make it stressful for families who need to balance their work schedule with their need for high-quality summer activities for their children,” said Dan Figurski, President of Champions. “As employers continue to implement return to work policies, we wanted to give families plenty of time to find a summer program that works best for their children and that’s in a convenient location within their school or community. Last year half of summer camp attendees were signed up before the end of spring, showing us families like to plan ahead.”

Throughout the school year, Champions operates more than 1,000 before- and after-school programs in partnership with elementary and middle schools around the country. During the summer more than 400 of those programs host Champ Camp, providing students ages 5-12 with daily activities organized around five key themes:

  • Innovation (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math)
  • Movement (healthy competition and physical activity)
  • Creativity (art)
  • Friendship (teamwork); and
  • Outdoor (nature exploration)

“Our Champ Camps give children plenty of time to play outside, interact with their friends, and build on the academic skills they learned during the school year so they’re ready to go when school starts again in the fall,” said Figurski.

Champ Camp includes indoor and outdoor group activities designed to help children use their natural creativity and curiosity to learn and develop important social skills, such as independence and resilience. In addition, Champ Camp Great Outdoors programs offer children a day camp experience where they can hike, swim, make art projects, work on team challenges, and learn about nature in 27 locations nationwide.

Families requested convenient, flexible and affordable summer programs, which is why Champ Camp is designed to accommodate both full and part-time participation. Champions also works with a variety of state and federal agencies to help families of all means access tuition subsidies for school-based Champ Camps.

Families can sign up their school-age children for Champions Champ Camp online.
