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.

CFP Board Appoints Barry Gersten as Head Technology Officer

By: via Business Wire

CFP Board today announced the appointment of Barry S. Gersten as its Head Technology Officer. Gersten will oversee CFP Board’s information technology and digital initiatives.

As Head Technology Officer, Gersten plays a critical role in shaping the technology vision and aligning information technology (IT) capabilities with the organization’s mission, strategic objectives and operational needs. He also provides leadership in evaluating the utility of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence.

“In this era of rapid technological change, Barry’s leadership will elevate our digital readiness and help us remain at the forefront,” said CFP Board CEO Kevin R. Keller, CAE. “His decades of strategic IT leadership expertise will be instrumental as we continue to drive innovation, enhance collaboration and build resilient, adaptive systems that not only support CFP® professionals, certification candidates and the public, but also strengthen the digital experience for our education and CE partners.”

Gersten joins CFP Board from his independent consulting practice. During his time as a consultant, he helped lead IT strategy and operations at various organizations, including CFP Board, conducting comprehensive assessments of IT systems, infrastructure and vendor services. Prior to this, Gersten served as the Chief Technology Officer at the American Nurses Association, where he led digital transformation initiatives, resulting in a 30% increase in operational efficiency and a 20% reduction in IT infrastructure costs. He also served as Vice President of Information Technology at The Aspen Institute and Chief Information Officer for the Washington DC Metropolitan Police Department.

“I’m proud to be part of CFP Board’s culture that truly values continuous improvement and innovation,” said Gersten. “It’s exciting to be in a role where I can apply my experience to make a real impact — using technology to help move both the organization and the financial planning profession forward.”

Gersten holds an M.S. in business administration from Johns Hopkins University and earned his bachelor’s degree in information systems management from the University of Maryland.

Based in CFP Board’s Washington, D.C., headquarters, Gersten will report to CFP Board CEO Kevin R. Keller, CAE. He starts his new role on June 16.
