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.

Booz Allen Secures $1.58 Billion Contract for Intelligence Analysis to Counter Weapons of Mass Destruction

Transforming Counter-WMD Missions with Advanced Technology

Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) today announced it was awarded a five-year, single-award task order with a $1.58 billion ceiling to provide intelligence analysis related to countering weapons of mass destruction (CWMD). Under the Weapons of Mass Destruction Analysis, Exploitation, and Data Science Support (WAEDS) task order, awarded in September 2024, Booz Allen will apply advanced technology and tradecraft to transform CWMD missions globally.

WAEDS supports the Defense Intelligence Agency's (DIA) Defense Counterproliferation Office and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) to provide CWMD intelligence analysis, including production and dissemination, visualization, web development, business analytics, intelligence business operations, and compartmented programs support to the analytic workforce. This task order will provide the bulk of the intelligence community and the Department of Defense’s (DOD) WMD and CWMD intelligence analysis and intelligence support to critical operations through highly technical and scientific skillsets.

“As America faces the most challenging national security environment in half a century, WAEDS seeks to advance the CWMD mission with an accelerated trajectory the nation hasn’t experienced since the early 2000s,” said Lisa Bishop, a senior vice president in Booz Allen’s national security business. “The work is both foundational to the DIA mission and transformational at the same time through the technical support and expertise that we will add to this mission across multiple agencies and commands. This win is the latest example of how Booz Allen is applying advanced technology to solve the nation’s most complicated challenges and make America safer.”

Booz Allen brings highly technical skillsets to WAEDS, including intelligence analysis across all functional disciplines, WMD expertise, data science, and language-enabled analysis. The company will also apply expertise spanning cybersecurity, physics, missile systems, and other advanced technologies to strengthen U.S. national security. Work on the contract will take place primarily in Reston and Fort Belvoir, Virginia, with additional locations across the United States and globally.

“This win underscores our proven ability to execute, train, and proliferate compliant, timely, relevant, and actionable intelligence production along with our depth and breadth of technical expertise with WMD-related technologies,” said Tucker Moore, a vice president in Booz Allen’s national security business. “As the largest provider of intelligence analysis to DIA and the combatant commands, Booz Allen’s technical capabilities in data science, AI and machine learning, and digital modernization enable us to accelerate DIA’s mission at scale.”

This award builds upon Booz Allen’s position as an advanced technology company and the leading provider of AI and cybersecurity to the federal government, in addition to the company’s deep-rooted commitment to innovation in support of the intelligence community and DOD’s CWMD mission across multiple agencies.
