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.

UPS Makes Bold Moves with Ground Portfolio Expansion

By: via Business Wire

UPS Ground Saver® and UPS® Ground with Freight Pricing Expand Customer Options, Powered by the Reliability and Best-in-Class Trust of UPS

UPS (NYSE: UPS) is doubling down on its customer-first strategy by expanding its end-to-end portfolio with two ground shipping options for residential and commercial shippers: UPS Ground Saver® and UPS® Ground with Freight Pricing. In today’s dynamic market, global logistics continues to evolve, and UPS is moving forward to deliver for customers of all needs and sizes.

"UPS is on a mission to transform our customer experience by offering an end-to-end portfolio which provides delivery, returns and pickup services seven-days-a-week," said UPS Chief Commercial and Strategy Officer Matt Guffey. "Ground Saver and Ground with Freight Pricing represent the first of many product enhancements UPS will roll out in 2025."

UPS Ground Saver®

UPS Ground Saver is a reliable, economical shipping solution for less urgent packages, leveraging the UPS® Smart Logistics Network.

Customers who choose UPS Ground Saver will take advantage of:

  • Reliability and speed with delivery time comparable to UPS Ground plus 1 – 2 days.
  • Superior recipient experience and control, giving consumers a unique ability to upgrade to faster UPS Ground via UPS My Choice®.
  • Outstanding economy product visibility including Delivery Photo.

For Direct-to-Consumer customers looking to reduce costs while maintaining a high level of service or for those shipping lower value merchandise, UPS Ground Saver provides the efficiency and reliability of the UPS Ground network.

UPS® Ground with Freight Pricing

UPS Ground with Freight Pricing provides exceptional value for less-than-pallet load shipments that weigh more than 150 lbs. and is ideal for commercial shippers looking for small package reliability.

Advantages include:

  • Predictable cost savings versus LTL carriers
  • No additional costs for lift-gate, inside delivery or pallet weight
  • Nationwide coverage with the reliability of the UPS network

IBIS World projects that the LTL market size will reach nearly $94.5 billion by 2025, illustrating a significant growth opportunity for UPS due to the considerable portion of the market that is compatible with small package shipping.

Guffey added, “UPS is the only major U.S. small package carrier that offers parcel service at LTL pricing, which is a true differentiator.”

Throughout 2025, UPS will roll out enhancements to its premium portfolio offerings that will raise the bar for the delivery and logistics industry. These enhancements will put shippers and receivers in the driver’s seat, with increased control, visibility and choice.
