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.

Comcast Expanding State-of-the-Art Network to More Than 50,000 Homes and Businesses in the Hagerstown, MD Area

Comcast Deepens Investment in the Community with $40,000 Donation to Two Hagerstown-Based Nonprofits for Digital Skills Training

Comcast today announced a major expansion to connect more than 50,000 homes and businesses in the Hagerstown, MD area to reliable, high-speed, symmetrical Internet. The project brings Internet, mobile, entertainment, and security services from Xfinity and Comcast Business to residents and businesses for the first time.

Comcast’s network expansion includes all homes and businesses in the City of Hagerstown, as well as surrounding communities such as Cavetown, Fairplay, Funkstown, Smithsburg, Tilghmanton and Williamsport.

“Fast, reliable Internet is critical to our region’s ability to attract businesses and meet residents’ ever-expanding technological needs,” said Mayor William “Bill” McIntire, City of Hagerstown. “We are thrilled to have a new provider offering advanced connectivity solutions and applaud Comcast for this significant investment.”

Xfinity and Comcast Business services are already available to thousands of addresses across the Hagerstown area, with additional homes and businesses rolling out in phases. Residents can visit Xfinity.com/mytown to enter their address for additional details on construction timing and upcoming service availability.

“We’re proud to expand our reliable, secure and peak-performance network to more than 50,000 homes and businesses across the Hagerstown area – bringing choice for high-speed Internet, business solutions, entertainment and more,” said Ray Roundtree, Senior Vice President of Comcast’s Beltway Region. “We have a dedicated team of local experts who are excited to help more residents and businesses get connected to Xfinity and Comcast Business services.”

What It Means for the Hagerstown Community

Comcast’s commitment to communities goes beyond building the network and aims to increase economic mobility for the local community and its residents. That’s why Comcast created Internet Essentials, a broadband adoption program that offers eligible households low-cost, high-speed Internet and affordable computers.

Additionally, Comcast is deeply committed to advancing digital opportunity in the communities it serves and announced a donation of $40,000 to Horizon Goodwill Industries and the Boys & Girls Club of Washington County, two nonprofits based in Hagerstown. These investments are focused on helping people build digital skills, accelerating career development opportunities and funding connectivity and Internet adoption programs.

A Network You Can Trust to be Reliable, Fast and Secure

Hagerstown joins the 64 million homes and businesses across the country to have access to a network that is trusted by essential community organizations like hospitals, schools, transportation systems and first responders, and federal agencies like the Department of Defense and FEMA. It delivers gigabit Internet speeds, 99.9 percent reliability and built-in security to help keep customers safe from cyber threats.
