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.

Clutch Report: No-Code Tools Fuel Website Growth, Yet 17% of Small Businesses are Still Offline

83% of small businesses now have a website, up from 64% in 2018, driven by the rise of affordable no-code tools and AI integrations.

A new Clutch survey shows 83% of small businesses now have a website, up from 64% in 2018, highlighting how accessible tech is reshaping online competition. No-code builders and affordable tools make it easier than ever for entrepreneurs to launch professional sites without design or coding skills.

“Small businesses no longer require a large budget or in-house developer to build a professional website,” said Jeanette Godreau, who oversees content related to web design at Clutch. “No-code platforms and AI have made high-quality web design more accessible than ever.”

Website Growth Accelerates with Accessible Tools

Website adoption is accelerating: 12% of small businesses launched a site in the past year alone, driven by easy-to-use, low-cost platforms. DIY builders like Wix and Squarespace power 41% of these sites, while 34% use WordPress or Shopify. Just 12% are custom-built. Development is split across in-house teams (37%), owners (8%), and outsourced partners (45%).

AI-driven features, such as automated layouts, content suggestions, and personalization, are now common in many platforms, helping businesses launch faster with minimal friction.

Why 17% of Small Businesses Still Don’t Have a Website

While 83% of small businesses have websites, 17% remain offline often due to misconceptions rather than cost. Over a third believe a website isn’t relevant and rely on social media or marketplaces instead, missing out on SEO, brand control, and 24/7 lead generation.

Notably, 28% of those without a site have no online presence at all, making it harder to compete in today’s digital market. A website is no longer optional for survival, it’s essential.

The full survey is available on Clutch.
