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.

Ochsner Interests Announces Upcoming Launch of Blockchain-Enabled Clean Energy Pilot in Texas, Targeting 500 MW and 50,000 Customers

Ochsner Interests, Inc. today announced development of a blockchain-enabled pilot in Texas in partnership with two competitive retail electric providers. The initiative is designed to enable direct customer ownership of utility-scale clean energy generation, targeting 500 megawatts of capacity and 50,000 participating customers.

The pilot will record project output on a distributed ledger to provide transparent settlement and streamlined financing. By integrating structured risk management features—including irradiance-based insurance and delay-in-start-up coverage—the platform is intended to enhance resilience and support customer participation. Retail providers will gain the ability to introduce long-term supply products at competitive rates, addressing limitations of traditional short-term contracts.

Evolving Texas power market dynamics create opportunities to deliver lower retail costs and expand customer choice. ERCOT’s August 2025 interconnection report, published September 2, 2025, lists more than 160,000 megawatts of solar capacity under study—nearly twice ERCOT’s record peak load of 85,931 megawatts—underscoring the scale of potential growth. Through fractional ownership models, residential and commercial customers will be able to hold stakes in utility-scale generation projects alongside institutional participants.

“Ochsner Interests is committed to reshaping how customers access and benefit from clean energy markets,” said Preston Ochsner, Founder and CEO of Ochsner Interests, Inc. “This initiative is designed to lower costs, expand choice, and mobilize private capital to support the energy transition in Texas and beyond.”

Texas is home to more than 31 million residents, making it one of the largest competitive power markets in the United States. The pilot positions Texas as a national model for transparent, customer-centric approaches to clean energy and supports broader sustainable finance objectives.
