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.

NextNav’s 3D Location Technology Now Helping 9-1-1 Telecommunicators in Portions of North Central Texas

NextNav Inc. (Nasdaq: NN), a leader in next generation positioning, navigation and timing (PNT), announced today that its 3D mapping system is now live at select early adopter Emergency Communications Centers (ECCs) within the North Central Texas Emergency Communications District (NCT9-1-1). Full deployment across the district is scheduled for completion later this quarter.

This breakthrough technology allows 9-1-1 call centers to see not just the horizontal location of a caller, but also their vertical position — in other words, how high they are within a building. By visualizing calls in a 3D wireframe view of buildings, first responders can visualize where help is needed faster and more accurately, especially in tall or complex buildings.

"The ability to locate callers and responders with this level of precision is a significant advancement for public safety. It allows us to respond faster and more accurately, particularly in urban and multi-story settings." said Rodger Mann, Chief Innovation Officer of NCT9-1-1. "NextNav has been a valuable partner, consistently demonstrating a strong commitment to enhancing public safety."

The system is powered through a partnership between NextNav and a next-generation cloud platform for public safety. Key features include real-time vertical location data, estimated floor levels, and detailed 3D building maps — all integrated into the dispatch center’s main mapping system.

“Our technology gives emergency teams a clearer picture of what’s happening inside buildings during an emergency,” said Rob Clark, Senior Director - Public Safety of NextNav. “That can make all the difference when seconds count.”

This rollout marks a major milestone in bringing advanced vertical location data into real-world emergency response for NCT9-1-1— and sets the stage for similar upgrades at 9-1-1 call centers across the country.
