About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

Opengear Unveils Integrated Support Platform to Empower Always-On Infrastructure.

Beginning this month, every new Opengear appliance will ship with five years of built-in hardware coverage and inclusive SLA-backed support. This shift turns support into a strategic asset, enabling IT leaders to plan more confidently, reduce risk, and simplify the path to network resilience.

“This marks a meaningful evolution in the way we support our customers,” said Patrick Quirk, President and General Manager, Opengear. “We’re delivering peace of mind through smarter coverage, flexible service options, and a consistent, long-term ownership experience. This is a foundational shift to help our customers scale resiliently and predictably.”

Built-In Support, Tailored for Modern IT

With today’s infrastructure under constant pressure to deliver uptime, Opengear’s support model takes the guesswork out of ownership and scales with operational needs.

  • Five years, standard: Every new Opengear device comes with 5 years of hardware protection — no forms, no added cost, no surprises
  • Two SLA-backed support tiers:
    • Foundation: 8x5 support, advanced hardware replacement, and guaranteed response SLAs
    • Premium: 24x7x365 coverage, accelerated escalation, senior technical experts, and — for enterprise customers — dedicated advocates and 60 hours of annual professional services
  • Simplified purchasing: By requiring support on all new appliances and standardizing SKUs, Opengear eliminates quoting complexity and aligns long-term total cost of ownership (TCO)
