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.

Starboard Group and Invicta Watch Group Announce Exclusive Launch of Invicta Tequila on Cruise Ships Worldwide

First-of-Its-Kind and First-at-Sea Debut Will Give Cruise Guests Initial Access to New Premium Spirit Produced by Mexico’s Renowned Casa Maestri Distillery

Starboard Leverages Global Network and Expertise to Spearhead Creation of Private-Label Tequila

Starboard Group, the world’s leading vacation retail curator, today announced the launch of Invicta Tequila—a bold new lifestyle product developed in collaboration with Invicta Watch Group and produced by the renowned Casa Maestri Distillery in Mexico. Launching exclusively on 26 cruise ships this summer, the new premium tequila is Invicta’s latest expansion as a lifestyle brand and is a first-of-its-kind—and first-at-sea—collaboration between a watch brand and a tequila producer. The launch also marks a milestone in Starboard’s history as it is the first time the company has spearheaded the creation of a branded, premium spirit from concept to shelf.

“We are thrilled to debut Invicta Tequila exclusively onboard 26 cruise ships and give guests on those vessels a chance to experience the product before anyone else in the world,” said Lisa Bauer, President and CEO, Starboard Group. “This launch builds on our strong partnership with Invicta and leverages our expertise and global resources in the premium spirits space to help extend the brand into a new lifestyle category and offer exclusive, personalized onboard experiences that will excite its customers and fans.”

The launch of Invicta Tequila reflects Starboard’s continuing evolution beyond traditional vacation retail operations into brand building, experience curation and category innovation. The company leveraged its deep understanding of Invicta’s passionate customer base to identify the premium spirits category, and tequila in particular, as a natural brand extension opportunity that would give Invicta fans a new, collectible—and consumable—way to celebrate their love of the brand.

“We are proud to continue our expansion as a lifestyle brand by launching Invicta Tequila exclusively on cruise ships across the globe,” said Eyal Lalo, CEO of Invicta Watch Company. “Starboard was the perfect partner for us to collaborate with on our first entry into the high spirits space, as they have strong global relationships in the category and deep knowledge of our customers, who are passionate about the Invicta brand and excited to engage with us across a growing array of lifestyle products and exclusive experiences.”

By initially launching Invicta Tequila onboard 26 cruise ships, Starboard is also tapping into Invicta fans’ love of brand exclusives by creating an immersive, experience-led debut for the new spirit and giving cruise guests first access to the product and personalized offerings such as on-board tastings. In addition to the Invicta Tequila launch, Starboard is also introducing Invicta fragrances onboard selected ships this summer.

Starboard tapped its expertise and global relationships in the premium spirits space to identify award-winning tequila producer Casa Maestri, based in Jalisco, Mexico, as the ideal partner to ensure Invicta Tequila is synonymous with quality, authenticity and the bold spirit that defines the Invicta brand.

“We’re extremely honored to partner with Invicta and Starboard to produce Invicta Tequila,” said Celia V. Maestri, CEO and co-founder at Casa Maestri Distillery. “We nurture our agave fields with the utmost care and use traditional production methods to ensure every bottle of Invicta meets the highest standards and reflects the brand’s bold spirit and commitment to quality craftsmanship.”
