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 Connects First Homes and Businesses in Leonardtown, MD Area to Its State-of-the-Art Network

Comcast bolsters investment in St. Mary’s County, bringing Xfinity and Comcast Business Services to 5,800 additional homes and businesses in the Leonardtown area

Comcast today announced it connected the first residents in Leonardtown, MD to Xfinity and Comcast Business services. These are the first of 5,800 homes and businesses that Comcast is connecting to reliable, high-speed, symmetrical, Internet in the Leonardtown area.

This expansion in Leonardtown deepens Comcast’s investment in St. Mary’s County, MD – where the company is undergoing a broader network expansion – ultimately connecting more than 30,000 residents and businesses across the county to Xfinity and Comcast Business services for the first time.

Xfinity and Comcast Business services are already available to thousands of addresses in St. Mary’s County. The company expects to reach a milestone of connecting 50 percent of residents and businesses included in the expansion project by summer 2025, and to complete the entire project by 2028. Residents can visit Xfinity.com/mytown and enter their addresses for additional details on construction timing and upcoming service availability.

“Expanding broadband access is a top priority for St. Mary’s County, and we are thrilled to see Comcast making this significant investment in our community,” said Randy Guy, President of the Commissioners of St. Mary’s County. “Connecting more than 30,000 residents and businesses to high-speed Internet will strengthen our local economy, enhance educational opportunities, and improve the overall quality of life for our citizens. This expansion not only increases connectivity but also provides our residents and businesses with more choices for reliable digital access, ensuring they have the options they need to stay connected in today’s world.”

“As St. Mary’s County continues to grow and attract new businesses, we are proud to bolster our investment in the region and bring our state-of-the-art network to thousands more residents and small businesses,” said Ray Roundtree, Senior Vice President of Comcast’s Beltway Region. “Our network delivers gig speeds, world-class reliability, and the best WiFi experience in-and-out of the home, and we’re excited to help more Xfinity and Comcast Business customers thrive in St. Mary’s County.”

What It Means for the Leonardtown 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 totaling $47,000 to the Boys & Girls Club of Southern Maryland and the Arc Southern Maryland – two local nonprofits with facilities in St. Mary’s County. 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

Leonardtown 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.
