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.

Protect your health for the holidays with a flu shot

(BPT) - Holidays can bring cheer, stress … or a little (or a lot) of both. One way to help ensure more cheer and less stress is to stay healthy. That's why CDC recommends staying up to date on your vaccines to help protect against respiratory illnesses, including flu. Getting an annual flu shot can reduce your risk of getting flu and make your symptoms milder if you do get sick.

A flu shot is especially important for children and adults with certain chronic medical conditions - such as asthma, heart disease, diabetes, or history of stroke - who are at higher risk of developing serious flu-related complications. During the 2023-2024 flu season, about 90% of people hospitalized with flu had at least one chronic medical condition. Flu can make certain pre-existing chronic medical conditions worse, even if they are well-managed. And although people with chronic conditions are at a higher risk of serious flu outcomes, they are historically under-vaccinated.

How does having a chronic medical condition increase your risk from flu? Find out more and learn why it's important to protect your health (and holiday cheer!) with a flu vaccine:

Flu and people with asthma

People with asthma are at higher risk of developing flu-related complications. Flu can trigger asthma and worsen asthma symptoms by causing further inflammation of the airways and lungs. People with asthma are more likely to develop pneumonia after getting sick with flu than people who do not have asthma.

Flu and people with heart disease or a history of stroke

In past flu seasons, about half of adults hospitalized with flu had heart disease. Studies have shown that flu illness is associated with an increase in heart attacks and strokes. Additionally, people with heart disease and those who have had a stroke are at higher risk of developing serious flu complications.

Flu and people with diabetes

Flu can make managing diabetes more complicated by making it harder to control blood sugar levels. About 30% of adults hospitalized with flu during recent seasons reported having diabetes.

Protect yourself against flu today.

A flu vaccine is the best way to protect against flu and can help take flu illness from wild to mild. Now is a great time to get vaccinated; flu most commonly peaks in February and significant activity can continue into May. Learn more about flu and chronic conditions and speak with your health care provider to find out the best way to protect yourself against flu.
