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.

From new trucks to refrigeration units to renovations, the funds will help food banks and pantries increase their capacity to meet growing need. The grants, given by BJ’s Charitable Foundation, will be used across the company’s footprint.

“BJ’s Wholesale Club is driven by a powerful purpose: taking care of the families who depend on us,” said Bob Eddy, Chairman and CEO, BJ’s Wholesale Club. “For over 40 years, BJ’s has made a positive difference in all the communities where we live and work. Living our purpose has always started right here in Massachusetts.”

The funds will enable Franklin Food Pantry in Franklin, Mass. to purchase a new refrigerated truck and two commercial cooling units. Franklin Food Pantry serves nearly 25,000 people annually and saw a 38% increase in demand for hunger relief services from 2023 to 2024 – with the demand continuing to grow in the current program year.

“The generous support from BJ’s Wholesale Club is invaluable. With these new resources we’re able to improve efficiency and serve more community members,” said Tina Powderly, Executive Director of Franklin Food Pantry. “We’re truly grateful for our ongoing partnership as we work together to nourish our neighbors.”

Additional donations in Massachusetts will support community café renovations at Pearl Street Cupboard and Café in Framingham, the purchase of two commercial refrigerators at Marlborough Community Cupboard and a new box truck for El Buen Samaritano in Worcester. Combined, these organizations serve over 100,000 local residents each year.

According to Feeding America, 47 million people in the United States, including 1 in 5 children, are food insecure – the highest rate in 10 years. Through these capacity-building grants, BJ’s Charitable Foundation continues its long-time partnership with Feeding America. For over 15 years, the partnership has provided more than 155 million meals for those in need.

“For more than 15 years, BJ’s Wholesale Club has been a partner in the movement to end hunger in our communities,” said Lauren Biedron, Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships from Feeding America. “Our relationship with BJ's is critical to meeting the increasing demand many local food banks and pantries face as millions of people turn to them for vital support. We are grateful for their generous financial support and donations of produce, meat and dairy products to ensure that everyone has access to the food and resources they need to thrive.”

  • Feeding South Florida in Pembroke Park, FL
  • Connecticut Foodshare in Wallingford, CT
  • Philabundance in Philadelphia, PA
