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.

Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP Obtains $18 Million Settlement During the Second Week of Jury Trial for Brothers Injured in Collision with Speeding LAPD Officer

By: via Business Wire

After a year of contentious litigation, attorneys for Stephen and Richard Paper, two elderly brothers severely injured in a collision with a speeding LAPD vehicle, secured an $18,000,000 settlement from the City of Los Angeles. The settlement, approved by the City Council in a 10-3 vote and signed by Mayor Karen Bass on Tuesday, was reached on the seventh day of a 14-day trial and will be paid over three years. The City Council’s approval also requested that the City Attorney draft a letter of apology from the LAPD as part of the settlement. Plaintiffs were represented in the case and at trial by Robert Glassman, Tom Schultz, Jon Davidi, and Joe O'Hanlon of Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP.

"From the beginning of this case and continuing through trial, the City denied responsibility for the actions of its officer and shifted blame to Stephen and Richard Paper, all the while minimizing their injuries and the damages they suffered as a result of the collision," said Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP partner, Robert Glassman. "When the evidence was presented at trial and the truth became inescapable, the City raised the white flag. The settlement will not make our clients whole, but it will enable them to get the treatment they need so they can move forward with their lives."

On the evening of June 4, 2024, on-duty LAPD officer Jason Stevenson accelerated his vehicle to 80 miles per hour—well above the posted speed limit—without activating his lights or sirens and crashed into the vehicle occupied by Stephen and Richard Paper. Both brothers suffered severe injuries, including skull and facial fractures, brain bleeds, and numerous spinal and body fractures requiring multiple surgeries and intensive rehabilitation. An investigation by the LAPD’s Multi-Disciplinary Collision Investigation Team concluded that Officer Stevenson was solely responsible for the collision. Nevertheless, the defendants denied liability before trial and disputed the extent of damages suffered by the injured plaintiffs.

The collision, and the aftermath that followed, were captured on video.

At trial, an attorney for the City of Los Angeles told the jury during opening statements that Stephen Paper was responsible for the collision because he allegedly made an unsafe left turn and further sought to minimize the Paper brothers’ damages by emphasizing that they were in their 70s and lived in rural Minnesota. In contrast, Plaintiffs’ witnesses testified that the LAPD officer was solely at fault and the Paper brothers will suffer lifelong injuries as a result of the crash.

The City of Los Angeles was represented in the case and at trial by Justin Sanders and Robert Dixon of Sanders Roberts LLP.
