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.

Nylabone Sponsors Reunification of Local Retired Military Working Dog Erika with Former Handler Staff Sergeant Tara of the U.S. Air Force.

Nylabone Sponsors Reunification of Local Retired Military Working Dog Erika with Former Handler Staff Sergeant Tara of the U.S. Air Force.

Erika, an eight-year-old Belgian Malinois, served alongside SSgt. Tara for nearly two years in Nylabone’s home state of New Jersey at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, as well as during overseas deployments, including Kuwait and Vietnam. Trained in suspect apprehension and detection, she played a vital role in protecting service members.

In the summer of 2025, Erika officially retired after seven years of service. Thanks to the financial support from Nylabone, American Humane Society was able to step in to escort Erika across the country to Texas in September for a heartwarming reunification with SSgt. Tara. Nylabone's sponsorship will also help cover Erika’s veterinary care for the rest of her life, ensuring she enjoys a healthy and happy retirement.

“Erika and Staff Sergeant Tara share an incredible bond, and we are honored to help bring them back together,” said Glen S. Axelrod, President and CEO of Nylabone Products. “We are grateful for Staff Sergeant Tara’s service and are thrilled Erika will now spend her retirement in the loving forever home she deserves.”

This reunion reflects Nylabone’s ongoing commitment to supporting military working dogs and their handlers. Since 2018, Nylabone has partnered with American Humane Society to sponsor multiple reunifications and to provide monetary and chew toy donations for shelter dogs and service dogs in training through the Pups4Patriots™ program.

“We are grateful for the opportunity to work with Nylabone to bring military working dog Erika home and reunite her with her best friend,” said Dr. Robin Ganzert, President and CEO of American Humane Society. “American Humane Society is honored to help give this courageous canine the comfortable retirement she deserves after seven years of distinguished service to our country.”

Through the Nylabone Cares™ program, the company also supports hundreds of local and national charities by donating chew toys and educating pet parents on healthy chewing habits. These efforts align with Central Garden & Pet’s Impact strategy, which is dedicated to making positive changes through philanthropic work focused on community health, employee well-being, and sustainability.
