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.

Union Pacific Unveils Commemorative Lincoln Locomotive No. 1616 with First Trip Planned in May

New locomotive honors Lincoln’s vision that unleashed economic innovation for America’s supply chain

Union Pacific Railroad unveiled the Abraham Lincoln commemorative locomotive No. 1616 today in North Little Rock, Arkansas. Numerous dignitaries, including Arkansas Lt. Governor Leslie Rutledge, North Little Rock Mayor Terry Hartwick and Lincoln Presidential Foundation Chairman Emeritus Sergio “Satch” Pecori joined Union Pacific executives and railroaders to celebrate the pivotal role Lincoln played uniting the nation through rail and laying the foundation for America’s freight rail supply chain.

Union Pacific Railroad’s new commemorative No. 1616 Lincoln Locomotive.

Union Pacific Railroad’s new commemorative No. 1616 Lincoln Locomotive.

Abraham Lincoln signed the Pacific Railway Act in 1862, creating Union Pacific and unleashing a new era of economic prosperity with the construction of the transcontinental railroad network.

“Union Pacific exists because President Abraham Lincoln wasn’t afraid to ask, ‘What’s Possible?’” said Union Pacific CEO Jim Vena. “Our employees move the critical goods Americans use each day. We are proud of our heritage and look forward to sharing this special locomotive with the communities and people along the 23 states where we operate.”

Railroads are at the heart of the U.S. economy and touch nearly every industry including vehicles, chemicals, energy, agriculture, metals, minerals, forest products, consumer goods and more. Union Pacific’s more than 30,000 employees deliver essential items from lumber and drywall to build homes to corn and wheat to make bread and cereal.

No. 1616’s paint scheme has the unique colors of Lincoln’s era and serves as a nod to locomotive No. 119, one of the two locomotives present at Promontory Summit, Utah, marking the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in 1869, officially uniting the eastern and western parts of the nation. It was painted at Union Pacific’s Downing B. Jenks Locomotive Shop in North Little Rock by Union Pacific’s dedicated employees.

The Lincoln locomotive will serve as a traveling ambassador. Its first public stop will be May 10 at the Oregon Rail Heritage Center in Portland, Oregon, in celebration of National Train Day. As additional stops are finalized, details will be shared on UP.com and social media.
