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.

The Sandbox, a leading decentralized gaming platform and a subsidiary of Animoca Brands, in collaboration with world-renowned wellness pioneer Dr. Deepak Chopra, announces the launch of Oasis of Quantum Consciousness, a new digital wellness gaming experience. Available now as part of The Sandbox’s Alpha Season 5, this gamified virtual zen garden invites players to interact with an array of daily meditative exercises to expand their mindfulness, spiritual connection, and joy.

Serving as the next step in Dr. Chopra’s mission to make wellness more accessible in digital spaces, the Oasis of Quantum Consciousness blends meditative practices with immersive design and playful exploration. More than a peaceful place to visit, the Oasis offers a welcoming space to return to and grow.

Step Inside a Virtual Zen Garden

Designed as a lush and symbolic landscape, players who enter the Oasis are met by Dr. Deepak Chopra, who will introduce them to the art of meditation and encourage them to slow down and reconnect with themselves and one another. From shimmering lakes to quiet woods, each environment is crafted to invite calm. As they journey through the space, users engage in light quests focused on breathing, mindfulness, and focus-building activities that ease anxiety and sharpen awareness.

Players are encouraged to use headphones while in the Oasis to fully enjoy the binaural sound effects, a first for The Sandbox. All interactive sounds are synced to the background music and tuned to its harmony, making interactions feel smooth, soothing, and satisfying.

A Place to Reflect, Learn, and Have Fun

Oasis of Quantum Consciousness offers a fresh perspective on meditation. Through gamification, players are invited to learn meditative practices via mini-games and quests. Dr. Chopra voices his in-world Avatar and guides visitors through their initial steps, transforming this digital garden into a living, breathing retreat.

The three guided Meditation Moment quests of varying lengths—three, five, and ten minutes—provide foundational tools for beginners and veterans to revisit as they refine their practice. Additionally, when players complete the Meditation Moment quests, they’ll unlock one of the chakras in the center of the Oasis Experience. These chakras open educational dialogues, helping players understand the different energy centers in the body, which Dr. Chopra emphasizes in his teachings.

This Experience is about more than just relaxation; it’s about rediscovering presence and stillness in a world of distraction,” said Deepak Chopra, MD. “The Oasis of Quantum Consciousness invites you to play, to breathe, and to return to yourself, all through the power of immersive digital space. I believe that by meeting people where they are, like digital spaces such as The Sandbox, we can help more people improve their well-being.

Wellness, Gamified

Even a short visit to the Oasis of Quantum Consciousness delivers measurable benefits. According to Dr. Chopra’s teachings and research:

  • A few minutes of daily mindfulness can reduce anxiety and improve emotional clarity.
  • Practicing gratitude—even virtually—has been shown to counteract the effects of negative stress.
  • Meditation can increase productivity by centering attention and reducing distraction.

With players already spending significant time in digital environments, The Sandbox offers a seamless way to take a mindful break without logging off.

Partnering with Dr. Chopra to bring the Oasis of Quantum Consciousness to life is part of our commitment to offering meaningful and transformative experiences in The Sandbox,” said Nicola Sebastiani, Chief Content Officer and CEO of the US. “This isn’t just a calming space for reflection; it’s a place for people to learn and grow in their real-life wellness journeys. We hope it inspires our Creator community to explore how elements like mindfulness and emotional well-being can enrich their own experiences. As we expand what’s possible in the metaverse, accessibility, purpose, and joy remain at the heart of everything we build.

Rooted in Alpha Season 5’s “Garden” Week

Launching during Week 3 of Alpha Season 5, the Oasis of Quantum Consciousness anchors the Season’s most peaceful chapter: The Garden. This portion of the Alpha Season 5 island is designed around themes of connection, calm, and introspection. Symbolic elements, like flowing water for emotional release, wooded paths for exploration, and high peaks for breath training, reinforce the intention behind every voxel.

Spiritual Style, Player Expression

To mark their journey, players can collect four limited-edition in-game wearables inspired by Dr. Chopra’s teachings: Awakening Mask, Wisdom Pads, Chakra Alignment Tunic, and Crown Chakra Headpiece.

We’re bringing mental wellbeing to the metaverse through an immersive gaming experience that blends wisdom and play. In collaboration with Deepak Chopra, MD, and The Sandbox, we want to bring gaming experiences that empower players to heal, grow, and connect, one mindful quest at a time,” said Poonacha Machaiah, co-founder of Seva.Love.

These player collectibles allow for personalized expression and a way to share spiritual commitment with the world, no spiritual background required!

The Sandbox is available for free on Windows and Mac computers. Players and Creators can download The Sandbox at sandbox.game.

Follow or join in the conversation via The Sandbox Discord, X, and Instagram.
