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.

Boot Barn renews exclusive partnership with Affirm

Multi-year renewal extends Affirm’s exclusive role as Boot Barn’s pay-over-time provider, both online and in-store

Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BOOT), the parent company of Boot Barn, Sheplers, and Country Outfitter, today announced it has extended its exclusive, multi-year partnership with Affirm (NASDAQ: AFRM), the payment network that empowers consumers and helps merchants drive growth. The renewed agreement builds on a strong relationship between the two companies, allowing consumers to continue using Affirm to pay over time — both online at checkout across all three brands and in-store at over 450 Boot Barn locations nationwide.

Whether shopping for work boots, western wear, or apparel and home goods, paying with Affirm is simple. In-store, consumers just open the Affirm app, search for “Boot Barn,” and tap “Shop in Store” to get started. Online, they simply choose Affirm at checkout. In both cases, consumers go through a quick eligibility check and, if approved, are offered customized biweekly or monthly payment plans starting at 0% APR and options up to 24 months. As always with Affirm, consumers will never pay late or hidden fees, ever.

“Providing our consumers with a seamless shopping experience and flexible payment options is extremely important to our team,” said Jon Kosoff, Chief Digital Officer at Boot Barn. “Given the success of our partnership with Affirm — particularly their ability to offer a range of plans tailored to our consumers’ needs, including longer-term options — extending the relationship was a natural next step. We’re excited to continue giving our consumers greater control, clarity, and convenience at checkout.”

“Boot Barn’s decision to extend its exclusive partnership with Affirm reflects the long-term trust we’ve built together,” said Pat Suh, SVP of Revenue at Affirm. “Boot Barn’s customers value quality, authenticity, and transparency — and that’s exactly what Affirm delivers. By never charging late fees, hidden fees, or compounding interest, we’re proud to offer a smarter way to pay over time that meets them wherever they are — online or in-store.”

Boot Barn is one of nearly 360,000 retail partners who trust Affirm to deliver superior value to their consumers, including REVOLVE, StockX, DICK’S Sporting Goods, Stitch Fix, and many more.
