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.

Cornerstone Building Brands Partners with Roc Solid Foundation to Build Hope for Kids Fighting Cancer

Multi-state initiative brings 16 backyard playsets to children fighting pediatric cancer during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and beyond

Cornerstone Building Brands, a leading manufacturer of exterior building products in North America, today announced a partnership with Roc Solid Foundation to build and donate backyard playsets for children fighting cancer — creating safe, joyful spaces at home for kids whose treatment often keeps them from public playgrounds.

The initiative — Roc Solid Foundation’s largest-ever multi-build program from a single company in its 16-year history — will provide families with moments of normalcy during a difficult journey. Starting in September, during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, playsets will be constructed and delivered to families in communities where Cornerstone Building Brands employees live and work — spanning North Carolina, Texas, New Jersey, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Ohio, Minnesota, Tennessee, New Hampshire, West Virginia, Illinois and Virginia.

“Cornerstone Building Brands is proud to support Roc Solid Foundation’s mission to build hope through the power of play,” said Gunner Smith, CEO of Cornerstone Building Brands. “We take pride in manufacturing a broad portfolio of exterior building products, including Ply Gem®, Simonton® Windows & Doors, Mastic® by Ply Gem and Mueller, Inc., that make homes stronger across our communities, and it’s our privilege to build these playsets that will help make these homes places of relief and happiness for children and families who need it most.”

Roc Solid Foundation founder and childhood cancer survivor Eric Newman said, "We are thrilled about the partnership with Cornerstone Building Brands, which is helping us reach more families fighting pediatric cancer than ever before. At Roc Solid, we truly believe that play defeats cancer, because when kids are playing, cancer is the last thing on their minds. It's so much more than a playset, and we are excited for Cornerstone Building Brands to experience the impact this will have for years to come."

The Roc Solid partnership is part of Cornerstone Building Brands’ Connecting Communities program, which engages employees and partners in building stronger neighborhoods through volunteerism, charitable giving and product donations. Since 2022, the program has generated more than 4,000 volunteer hours, engaged 1,600 team members and supported more than 150 organizations with more than $262,000 in charitable giving. From disaster relief to housing access and youth support initiatives, Connecting Communities reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to making a positive impact where team members live, work and play.

Based in Chesapeake, Va., Roc Solid Foundation has impacted thousands of families since its inception in 2009. The organization channels the power of play into its programs — surprising families with hospital Ready Bags at diagnosis and constructing backyard playsets during treatment to support children and their loved ones through challenging times.

“I’m really proud of our employees who are putting their skills to work building playsets for children undergoing treatment for pediatric cancer,” Smith added. “This effort is another way we can help make home possible in the communities where we live, work and play.”
