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.

Traveling for the holidays? Tips to protect your home while you are away

(BPT) - The holiday season is a time for joy and relaxation, and the last thing you want to worry about is your home while you're away. To ensure a worry-free trip, it's essential to take proactive steps to safeguard your property and enjoy peace of mind.

Prioritize your home security

If you've been considering installing security cameras but haven't gotten around to it, now is the perfect time to act. Investing in home security cameras will help keep you and your loved ones safe, whether you're traveling far or staying close to home this season.

There are many innovative and affordable home security solutions available that seamlessly blend into your décor. One of our favorites is the Blink Mini 2, a plug-in smart security camera with exceptional value. Its weather-resistant design makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use (with the addition of a weather-resistant power adapter sold separately), making it ideal for winter. The compact camera offers high-resolution video, a wide field of view and an LED spotlight for night view in color so you are able to monitor your home during the day or night.

Stay connected for peace of mind

To stay informed about who's at the door, the Blink Video Doorbell allows you to keep a watchful eye from anywhere. Whether you're traveling for the holidays or at home preparing for gatherings, this smart doorbell offers 1080p HD video both day and night, two-way audio, customizable motion alerts and privacy settings. While you're away, you can easily manage deliveries and welcome guests, and when you're home, it serves as an extra set of eyes, ensuring you never miss a moment while multitasking and getting ready for holiday festivities.

Illuminate your property

Lighting can deter unwanted visitors at night. The Blink Outdoor 4 Floodlight Camera features motion-triggered LED lighting, up to two years of battery life, wire-free install and real-time alerts. With HD day and infrared night video, motion detection, two-way audio and more, you can ensure that what matters most is protected around the clock.

For added security, consider Amazon smart lights. With the help of Alexa Routines, you can schedule the lights inside to turn on and off while you're hundreds of miles away, creating the illusion that someone is home. If you're staying local and hosting at home this season, guests always appreciate a little extra light walking up a dimly lit driveway!

Simplify your home security

Keeping your home secure has never been easier with smart home devices. The Blink Home Monitor app puts control at your fingertips, allowing you to monitor your entire security setup right from your smartphone. With multi-system support and simple setup, you can effortlessly manage multiple Blink cameras within one single app. Receive alerts about what matters most, day or night, no matter where you are. With Blink, staying connected to your home is just a tap away.

Be discreet about your travel plans

While sharing your vacation in real-time can be tempting, it can inadvertently make your home a target for unwanted visitors. Instead, inform a few trusted people - like a close neighbor or family member - about your plans in person or by phone. They can help keep an eye on your home and packages. Consider asking the post office to hold your mail while you're away or have someone you trust pick it up for you.

With multi-system support, you can use Blink to watch your home, vacation home or business all at the same time - allowing you to enjoy worry-free travel this holiday season.
