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.

Dominion Energy and the Library of Virginia Honor Five Leaders as 'Strong Men & Women in Virginia History'

  • 13th annual program recognizes African American leaders and their contributions to the Commonwealth
  • Honorees include a Lieutenant Governor, Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates, Composer, Librarian, Forensic Scientist
  • Four high school student finalists of creative contest also recognized

Dominion Energy and the Library of Virginia are pleased to announce the 2025 Strong Men & Women in Virginia History honorees and Student Creative Expressions Contest finalists.

This annual program recognizes notable African American business and community leaders who have overcome obstacles to make significant impacts across the state.

"This year’s Strong Men & Women in Virginia History honorees are trailblazers whose tireless efforts have created lasting change in their communities," said Ed Baine, President Utility Operations & Dominion Energy Virginia. "We proudly salute these inspiring community leaders whose lives demonstrate the power of perseverance and service.”

Members of the armed forces, engineers, medical professionals, community leaders, educators, writers, judges, and elected officials have been celebrated throughout the program's history.

“We are deeply honored to join Dominion Energy in celebrating African Americans who have made remarkable contributions in their respective fields and positively impacted the lives of our Commonwealth's citizens," said Librarian of Virginia Dennis T. Clark. "This year's honorees reflect inspiring success stories that embody legacies of excellence."

The 2025 honorees:

The Honorable Winsome Earle-Sears

Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, Winchester

The Honorable Don Scott

Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates, Portsmouth

Damien Geter

Composer, Conductor & Bass-Baritone, Chesterfield

Kelly L. Knight

Forensic Scientist, Fairfax

Virginia Young Lee (posthumously)

Librarian, Roanoke

The leaders were celebrated at a special event on Thursday in Richmond. Along with the event, the Library of Virginia will host a traveling exhibition featuring each of the honorees and their biographical information. The exhibition will be on display at various community, business, and educational institutions throughout the year so that Virginians can learn about these outstanding leaders and their contributions to the Commonwealth.

In 2013, Strong Men & Women in Virginia History was born when Dominion Energy and the Library of Virginia began a new educational initiative that merged two phenomenal Black History Month programs: Dominion Energy's 22-year-old series, Strong Men & Women: Excellence in Leadership and the Library of Virginia's eight-year-old program, African American Trailblazers in Virginia History.

As a part of the initiative, Virginia high school students can participate in a creative contest to honor outstanding African Americans and share stories they feel may be missing from the mainstream narrative.

Each finalist received an Apple MacBook Air laptop and money for their school.

The winner of the student creative contest was Matthew Peng from Meridian High School in Falls Church. Matthew reinterpreted the novel-in-verse “The Crossover,” by 2019 honoree Kwame Alexander, to create a “found poem” titled “Alone” to bring awareness to the need for inclusion. In honor of those efforts, Matthew’s school received an additional monetary award.

The 2025 Student Creative Expressions Contest finalists:

Alvaro Lobo Arispe

Washington-Liberty High School, Arlington

Allison Arnett

Grafton High School, York County

Nikhita Saravanan

Maggie L. Walker Governor's School for Government and International Studies, Richmond
