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.

Echelon Payments and CREATE. Announce Strategic Partnership to Expand Into Non-Profit Market

By: via Business Wire

The collaboration delivers comprehensive operations for CREATE. and broadens Echelon’s footprint in non-profit payments.

Echelon Payments, a well-established provider of customized payment solutions with over 20 years in the industry, announced a one-of-a-kind strategic partnership with CREATE. Payments, a rapidly growing organization dedicated to supporting non-profit organizations and their partners.

“CREATE. represents the kind of forward-thinking, cause-based leadership that aligns perfectly with Echelon,” said Kevin Canada, Chief Sales Officer at Echelon. “By combining our resources and experience, we're expanding into the non-profit marketplace at scale and also into new territories with traditional merchants, creating a model of collaboration that prioritizes long-term success over short-term transactions.”

Shared Vision for Growth

The partnership enables Echelon to expand its presence in new markets including the non-profit sector, where CREATE. has established meaningful expertise and relationships. In turn, CREATE. will leverage Echelon’s full-service operational infrastructure, allowing the company to concentrate on advancing its mission without the significant investment of building a complete back-office operation. This partnership marks a significant investment by Echelon in its strategic partnership channel, reinforcing its commitment to growth and innovation.

“After years of trial and error, we recognized the need for a true one-stop partner we could trust with our merchants, our partners, and our brand—and we found that in Echelon,” said Peter Youngren, Managing Partner of CREATE. “Their full-service operations allow us to focus on what matters most: serving the non-profit community and other merchants that need our help. Together, we’re forging a partnership built on expertise, enabling us to make a meaningful difference for the organizations and communities we serve.”

Technology and Infrastructure

CREATE. leverages self-developed technology to give agents the resources they need to market and scale their businesses. By bringing seasoned industry veterans into key leadership roles, CREATE. has strengthened both its sales growth and market presence. Echelon provides a robust operational backbone—including underwriting, onboarding, risk management, compliance, and world-class customer service—ensuring that merchants and sales partners receive consistent, high-quality support. Together, Echelon and CREATE. provide a full-service ecosystem, allowing both organizations to focus on growth, excellence, and expanding their impact nationwide.
