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.

Westlake Epoxy Announces the Launch of the EpoVIVE™: A New Era of Sustainable Solutions

Westlake Corporation (NYSE: WLK) announced today that Westlake Epoxy plans to launch at JEC World, March 4 to 6, 2025, in Paris, EpoVIVE™, an epoxy product portfolio offering a range of sustainable characteristics across multiple products, which will support customer sustainability initiatives. The EpoVIVE™ portfolio of Epoxy phenolic, resins and curing agents, represents a significant step forward in the commitment to drive sustainable innovation and foster value-chain collaboration. EpoVIVE™ products are developed with an environmentally conscious mindset.

The newly introduced EpoVIVE portfolio is distinguished by sustainable benefits, as confirmed by Westlake Epoxy’s evaluation according to industry-leading principles for measuring and assessing sustainable characteristics of each product. Products in the EpoVIVE portfolio provide sustainability advantages as compared to traditional Westlake formulas in one or more of the following categories:

  • Lower Carbon Footprint: Utilize ISCC PLUS mass-balanced renewable raw materials to reduce carbon emissions.
  • Energy Efficiency: Combine renewable energy with energy-efficient practices to reduce the carbon footprint.
  • Safer Materials: Use of safer materials that are free from SVHC (substances of very high concern) and CMR-(carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic), improving safe handling.
  • Emission Reductions: Achieve lower VOC (volatile organic compounds) waterborne epoxy resin dispersions, contributing to the reduction of emissions during customer applications.
  • Circular Solutions: Support circularity with innovative formulations and recycling processes that allow for the reuse, recycling, or repurposing of products in the EpoVIVE™ portfolio.

“At Westlake, we view sustainability not just as a goal, but as a responsibility. The introduction of our EpoVIVE product portfolio reflects our commitment to developing products that not only meet the highest standards of quality but also contribute to a healthier planet. We are excited to lead the industry with innovative solutions that drive positive environmental change,” said Karl-Martin Schellerer, Senior Vice President Europe and Asia.

EvoVIVE products offer a range of benefits and are tailored for diverse industries such as adhesives, aerospace, automotive, civil engineering and construction, composites and wind energy, electronics, electrical laminates, marine, and protective coatings.

Westlake Corporation has long been committed to sustainability, with initiatives aimed at reducing emissions, conserving resources, and developing products with sustainability attributes. The introduction of the EpoVIVE™ portfolio is aligned with our broader goals to reduce carbon emissions and to continuously improve our environmental footprint through operational innovations and sustainable product offerings.
