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.

'Tis the Season to be a Savvy Shopper

(BPT) - The holiday season is full of joy, gatherings, food and merriment. It's also full of parents and grandparents trying to maintain a budget as they shop, plan and execute those gatherings. AARP members can unwrap a myriad of deals on products and services that help ease the burden of spending and planning as you celebrate during this festive time of year.

"The holiday shopping season kicked off in early October this year with a slew of retailer sales, and sales will continue to roll throughout the season," said Trae Bodge, Smart Shopping Expert at truetrae.com. "Whether you've made headway in your holiday shopping or are just getting started, take a measured approach and capitalize on additional discounts for gifts, travel and more, available through memberships like AARP."

Here are just a few ways you can keep the "Happy" in Happy Holidays without going over budget.

Affordable Tech

With many companies showing off their latest technology over the past few months, it's a safe bet that you'll see plenty of devices on wish lists. AARP members don't have to throw budgets out the window to cover any additional expenses that can come with tech gadgets. For example, if someone in your family receives a new smartwatch, AARP members save 5% on monthly smartwatch cellular data services with an active Consumer Cellular plan. Or pair that new cell phone with an AT&T Unlimited Premium® PL plan and save $10 per line per month. Plus, receive up to $50 in waived activation and upgrade fees. For a limited time, AARP members get $100 in credits per line when you switch to AT&T (offer ends December 7, 2024). Don't forget to take advantage of any new stunning screen displays by streaming over 40,000 episodes and blockbuster movies, live sports, news and exclusive originals all in one place with Paramount+ while saving 10% with an AARP membership.

Taking a Holiday

The holiday season can be a tricky time to travel thanks to bigger crowds, weather delays, and more expensive tickets and hotel bookings for certain destinations. However, AARP members get exclusive deals, seasonal offers, and special savings when they book through the AARP Travel Center Powered by Expedia - which can also help you find those off-season deals for destinations like Europe which may be seeing lower prices versus the summer. AARP members also receive a $50 gift card when booking a vacation package for extra savings when you bundle your flight and hotel. Plus for a limited time, take advantage of 20% off stays and plan your next family escape for all ages ahead of the holidays. Whether that's sea, snow or a new city, book that family vacation and create memories that last a lifetime (offer ends December 31, 2024).

If you're hosting guests this year but need extra space for lodging, AARP members save 10% off the best available rate at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, which includes iconic hotel brands La Quinta®, Super 8®, and Baymont®. With more than 6,000 properties throughout the U.S., your visitors can enjoy their stay in a comfortable room nearby. Show off your hometown to out-of-town guests worry-free by being prepared in case something goes wrong while you're out exploring. AARP members save up to 20% on annual membership fees for Allstate Roadside plans, including Roadside Assist and Roadside Elite. Upon enrollment, you'll have access to assistance for towing, jump-starts, tire changes, lockout assistance, fuel delivery and more. Allstate Roadside plan benefits can be used 24/7 in any car you drive, including rented and borrowed ones.

Lastly, consider renting a car - whether you just touched down in a city away from home or are hosting for the holidays. A rental vehicle can be a more efficient and affordable option than public transportation and helpful to transport multiple guests who may arrive at different times. As an AARP member, save up to 35% off base rates with Budget with the Pay Now option or up to 30% off when you choose to Pay Later. Plus, members receive a 3% credit to apply to future rentals, a free upgrade on compact through full-size car class bookings (subject to availability) and an additional driver at no extra cost.

Home is Where the Heart Is

Sometimes the best holiday vacation is a staycation. If you won't be physically visiting family or friends for the holidays, you can still share festive wishes and gifts with everyone on your list. AARP members can save 5% off domestic and international UPS® shipping services at The UPS Store®, plus 15% off other eligible products and services.

The holiday season can be a difficult balancing act between your normal responsibilities and juggling more gatherings and expenses. AARP members can use their benefits to help lessen the burden so all they have to worry about is enjoying the festive season wrapped in love and topped with savings.
