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.

Kazakhstan Awards Wabtec a $4.2 Billion Locomotive Order

By: via Business Wire
  • Order value represents the largest locomotive contract in company history
  • Strengthens KTZ’s role as a critical and reliable hub for the Middle Corridor
  • Expands Wabtec’s footprint serving the CIS and Eurasia regions

Wabtec Corporation (NYSE: WAB) announced today a landmark agreement with National Company Kazakhstan Temir Zholy (KTZ), the national railway of Kazakhstan, to deliver Evolution Series locomotives and provide long-term service support. The multi-year order, valued at $4.2 billion, marks the largest locomotive agreement in Wabtec’s history.

“For over two decades, our partnership with KTZ has been critical in transforming Kazakhstan’s rail industry,” said Rafael Santana, President and CEO of Wabtec. “This historic agreement embodies KTZ’s visionary approach for the country’s rail network as the primary link between Europe and Asia. By delivering advanced locomotives and long-term service solutions, Wabtec is a proud partner in Kazakhstan’s progress, helping to unlock the region’s enormous potential and developing the engineering competencies in the country’s railway industry.”

Kazakhstan represents Wabtec’s regional center of excellence, and this deal further enhances the partnership with KTZ strengthening the company’s presence and leadership as a rail technology partner and innovator in the market. The new locomotives will enhance KTZ’s ongoing rail expansion and fleet renewal and are designed to operate in the demanding weather conditions and mountainous terrain of Kazakhstan. Additionally, the next generation of Evolution Series locomotives will improve fuel efficiency and operate for longer periods between maintenance overhauls. The order also includes maintenance services agreements to support the new locomotives and KTZ’s existing railroad fleet. The services are tailored to help maximize reliability and availability of KTZ’s fleet at optimal operating costs.

"Kazakhstan plays a key role in realizing the transit potential of the Eurasian continent," said Talgat Aldybergenov, the CEO of National Railway Company of Kazakhstan Temir Zholy. "This new agreement confirms our commitment to advanced technologies in the transport sector and will also make a significant contribution to the development of industry and railway engineering in Kazakhstan."
