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.

Other World Computing (OWC) Announces General Availability (GA) Launch of OWC Dock Ejector 2.0

The Ultimate Tool for Efficiently and Safely Ejecting All Storage Devices Connected to Your Mac or PC, including SoftRAID and AppleRAID Volumes

Other World Computing (OWC®), a trusted leader in delivering high-performance, secure, and sustainable technology solutions that enhance and extend the life of Macs and PCs, today announced the general availability (GA) launch of the OWC Dock Ejector 2.0, the ultimate solution for efficiently and safely ejecting all connected devices, including SoftRAID and AppleRAID volumes. This updated version works with all docks, including non-OWC docks and hubs, expanding compatibility and drive protection to all Mac and PC users.

The newly enhanced OWC Dock Ejector takes the tedium and risk out of un-docking devices individually. By ensuring all data has been written before any disk is unmounted, you can safely eject your dock without worrying about losing or fragmenting files.

New in OWC Dock Ejector 2.0:

  1. Streamlined install process (new for Mac) - OWC is the first to ship software that enables high-power Thunderbolt dock ports without requiring reduced macOS security settings.
    • OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 eliminates the need for Recovery Mode and simplifies the process compared to competing docks, which require users to boot into Recovery Mode, lower Mac security settings, reboot multiple times, and install system extensions. With OWC Dock Ejector 2.0, simply install the software, approve the system extension, and you’re done!
  2. Enhanced Volume Mounting (new for Mac) - OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 simplifies volume management like never before. If you unmount a volume, you can easily remount it without the hassle of unplugging cables or using Apple's Disk Utility application.

“OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 is all about making your life on the go easier while keeping your data secure,” said Larry O’Connor, CEO and Founder, Other World Computing (OWC). “With features like safe drive ejection, seamless connection management, and timesaving simplicity, it empowers everyone – whether you're a creative professional, IT administrator, or tech enthusiast – to work more efficiently and securely, without ever compromising your macOS security settings. Never worry when you need to disconnect and go - we’ve got you!”

OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 Features and Benefits:

  • Data Security - Avoid data corruption by safely ejecting all connected drives with a single click.
  • Easy Connection Management - Optimized for seamless disconnection of storage devices and peripherals.
  • Security First - No need to compromise your macOS security settings.
  • Timesaving - Skip the tedious recovery mode process required by other docks.
  • User-Friendly - Designed for simplicity without sacrificing functionality.

OWC Dock Ejector 2.0 is now generally available (GA) and is FREE. Visit https://www.owc.com/solutions/dock-ejector to learn more and start optimizing your workflow.
