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.

Comvest Partners Announces Sale of Atomic Transport

Comvest Partners (“Comvest”), a middle-market private equity and credit investment firm, today announced the sale of Atomic Transport (“Atomic”), a leading provider of specialized waste management services based in Chattanooga, Tenn. Atomic had been a portfolio investment of Comvest Credit Opportunities, Comvest’s opportunistic credit strategy, since 2021.

Atomic provides long-haul waste transport and transfer station management services to waste management companies nationwide. Since its formation in 2015, Atomic has expanded its operations to 30 customer waste terminals across 19 states, providing highly tailored solutions to transport municipal solid, liquid and construction and demolition waste from waste transfer stations to landfills.

Atomic’s revenue and EBITDA nearly tripled over Comvest’s investment period, during which Atomic added widely recognized industry veterans to its leadership team, made substantial investments in its equipment fleet, and enhanced its operating systems to ensure consistent delivery of best-in-class waste management services.

Shayne McCallie, Co-Founder and CEO of Atomic said, “Our partnership with Comvest has been pivotal to our ability to pursue transformational growth opportunities and drive significant value creation. We thank the Comvest team for their capital support, additive operating expertise and overall guidance.”
