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.

MACH Alliance Elevates Annual Conference to Help Companies Craft Their Composable Game Plan

9 in 10 enterprise businesses surveyed by the Alliance see MACH technology as critical to their organization; the reimagined conference will meet companies at all stages of their composable journey

The MACH Alliance today announced new details supporting The Composable Conference 2025, taking place April 22 – 24 at Convene Willis Tower, Chicago. Registration is now open for the three-day event, which comes back to the United States for the second year in a row. The reinvigorated format is designed to expertly guide attendees wherever they are on their composable journey.

With 91% of organizations agreeing that MACH technology will play an important role in their long-term success, developing a digital game plan through the use of MACH principles — composable, open, connected, autonomous, and incremental — is vital. Every organization exists at a unique stage in their digital maturity and executes its transformation differently, from driving operational efficiencies to building the right foundation to take advantage of agentic AI. For the seasoned MACH professionals, it’s about identifying the next big play, highlighting value, and aligning internal teams around the shared mission. For those moving from curiosity to adoption, smaller wins drive how MACH users move ahead with organizational support.

To better meet the needs of today’s business and technology leaders, The Composable Conference will be split into three distinct tracks, ensuring that attendees will walk away with tangible next steps to drive their organization’s digital evolution with a composable approach:

  • For the MACH-Curious — Leading brands and c-suite practitioners from MACH-certified organizations break down what a MACH approach to composability means for modern enterprises, why it’s more important than ever, the risks of inaction, and what organizations need in their toolkits for success.
  • For the MACH-Active — Workshops and roundtable discussions will address key gaps, identify required capabilities, and share actionable insights for organizations well into the next phase of their digital strategy.
  • For the MACH-Pro — Sessions and meetings delve into the ins and outs of a MACH stack, educating seasoned practitioners on topics like scaling the MACH approach further into their tech stacks and tackling new areas of innovation.

At The Composable Conference, the Alliance will also host the 2025 MACH Impact Awards Ceremony, a special yearly event that honors the most innovative and impactful MACH-powered technology projects globally. Previous winners include Clarks, Kraft-Heinz, Mars, and Wendy’s.

“Businesses aren’t just exploring MACH anymore, they’re actively implementing the technology, scaling the approach, and driving measurable impact,” said Casper Rasmussen, president, MACH Alliance. “This event is designed to meet organizations wherever they are, providing not just thought leadership, but real-world insights, frameworks, and practical steps to help them build their own composable game plan. We’re bringing together some of the most prominent brands and experts in the industry to foster collaboration, challenge conventional thinking, and equip attendees with the tools they need to drive their transformations with confidence.”

The Composable Conference is made possible by our headline partners: Accenture Song, Builder.io, Commercetools, Contentstack, Publicis Sapient, and Vercel.
