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.

Introduction

  • The building installation sector is affected by capital expenditure by the state and private property owners and managers.
  • Continued delays to state infrastructure projects have held back building installations.
  • Reduced loadshedding since early 2024 has led to a decline in residential rooftop solar installations.
  • Large property owners and construction companies continue to invest in solar and other energy and water efficiency measures.
  • The latest focus is on getting buildings to be self-sufficient in water supply due to crumbling municipal water infrastructure.

South Africa Building Installation Industry Trends

  • A government programme has led to the rollout of more student housing.
  • Installations of water backup tanks, boreholes and water meters has grown.
  • IoT has propelled a growth in smart buildings.

  • Logistical constraints with importing components for batteries.
  • New regulations are making it more burdensome to install solar.
  • Slow economy and the poor performance of the construction sector.
  • Tariffs mooted on solar equipment could increase the cost of installations.
