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.

Today, Avangrid, Inc., a leading energy company and member of the Iberdrola Group, responded to a call for mutual assistance in western Pennsylvania by sending crews from its Connecticut subsidiary, United Illuminating (UI), in the wake of severe storms that swept the region on Tuesday evening, April 29. In total, 30 lineworkers, four managers, and two support personnel will arrive in Pennsylvania this evening to help restore hundreds of thousands of outages in partnership with the region’s utility company, West Penn Power (a subsidiary of FirstEnergy Corp.), and other out-of-state crews responding to their request for mutual assistance.

“As all of us at Avangrid know, the lineworkers and other front-line workers at UI are some of the best in the business,” said Pedro Azagra, CEO of Avangrid. “When severe storms impact other utilities’ customers in neighboring states, while leaving our own customers unscathed, we are quick to jump into action to help restore outages as quickly and safely as possible. I am deeply grateful to our team as they travel many hours away from home to lend a hand in western Pennsylvania, and I thank each and every one of them for responding to these urgent requests for assistance with both generosity and enthusiasm.”

On Tuesday, a line of strong thunderstorms that stretched from Texas to New York had particularly severe impact on western Pennsylvania, where wind gusts of more than 80 miles per hour were reported. Hundreds of downed trees led to hazardous road conditions, and at least three people have reportedly been killed, two of whom were electrocuted by downed power lines. At the peak of outages, more than 500,000 customers across the greater Pittsburgh region and other areas of western Pennsylvania were without power. West Penn Power and other electric utilities in the region expect the restoration efforts to continue for several days.
