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.

Trex Company Adds Two Highly Experienced Executives to Leadership Team

Trex Company, Inc. [NYSE: TREX], the world’s largest manufacturer of wood-alternative decking and railing products and a leader in outdoor living products, announced the addition of two key executives: Jodi Lee is joining Trex as Senior Vice President, Marketing, where she will lead the Company’s marketing strategy, drive consumer engagement, and develop innovative campaigns to support Trex’s long-term growth goals; and Kevin Brennan is joining as Vice President, Pro-Channel Sales, responsible for strengthening relationships with professional contractors, distributors, and dealers, driving sales growth, and expanding product adoption within the pro-channel segment of the decking and railing industry.

“We are thrilled to add Jodi and Kevin – two accomplished professionals of exceptional caliber – to the Trex leadership team,” said Adam Zambanini, Executive Vice President and COO. “Both have a demonstrated history of strong performance and successful team development.”

Jodi Lee is an accomplished marketing and business leader with a proven track record of driving significant growth and transformation for iconic brands. With over 20 years of experience in brand development, digital transformation, and strategic partnerships, Jodi excels at delivering revenue growth, launching successful new product lines, and building high-performing marketing teams.

“Our brand and marketing programs are some of the most recognized and respected in the industry,” continued Zambanini. “Jodi is the perfect person to build on that legacy and further elevate our presence.”

Her extensive expertise covers a wide range of responsibilities, including innovation, product development, advertising, customer insights, and P&L management for key business segments. In her recent role as Vice President, Brand Marketing at The Scotts Miracle-Gro Company, she led a team that exceeded $2.5 billion in revenue, launched world-class marketing campaigns, and developed robust innovation pipelines. In 2024, she led Miracle-Gro’s marketing collaboration with Martha Stewart to launch their new Organic line of products and successfully transformed the entire Roundup brand with a new formula and an award-winning marketing campaign, “This Stuff Works.”

Kevin Brennan joins Trex from Coastal Forest Products where he spent the last two years as Vice President of Sales and Marketing. An accomplished sales and marketing executive whose career spans nearly three decades, Kevin has held roles at respected businesses across the building materials industry, including significant experience with product categories such as decking, railing, fencing, and fasteners. He has worked for both manufacturers and distributors within the decking and railing sectors.

“Kevin Brennan is a well-known and respected figure within our industry,” said Zambanini. “His extensive career in the building products space will enable him to seamlessly integrate into our team and further strengthen our industry-leading network of pro-channel partners.”

Earlier in his career, Kevin served as Vice President of Sales and Marketing for the TimberTech brand of decking and railing products. During his tenure, Kevin led a team of sales professionals responsible for both domestic and international markets, including more than 30 countries. A recognized leader in the composite decking industry, Kevin was a founding board member of the Composite Lumber Manufactures Association and served on the board of the North American Deck & Rail Association.
