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.

Labor less this Labor Day with Glidden Master Finish Spray Paint

(BPT) - Easy-to-use Glidden® Master Finish™ spray paint, available at Walmart, allows DIYers to complete projects faster, leaving plenty of time to still enjoy the long holiday weekend.

Labor Day Weekend is quickly approaching, marking the end of summer. Whether homeowners need a backyard refresh ahead of Labor Day hosting or they never completed those outdoor projects planned at the beginning of summer, Glidden® Master Finish™ spray paint has them covered.

'Refinishing furniture with spray paint is one of the easiest DIY projects out there, and the perfect way to quickly get your space ready for long weekend hosting,' said Anamaria Cindric, product manager of spray paint, Glidden Paints by PPG. 'With Glidden Master Finish, you can refresh your patio furniture that might be looking a little worn from the winter or update color to match a new trend or aesthetic.

Anyone who has spray painted in the past knows that one of the biggest application concerns is the potential for drips and streaks due to over-spraying. Glidden Master Finish has a unique spray pattern that provides the high-coverage and durable finish of spray paint, without the worry of drips or streaks.

Finding the right time to spray paint is also a challenge, with concerns about when the next passing summer storm could impact the project drying outside. With a five-minute dry time, Glidden Master Finish allows DIYers to quickly complete their end-of-season projects in the span of a few hours, depending on project size, leaving plenty of time to enjoy poolside entertaining and BBQ mastery during the final days of summer.

Popular exterior project updates using Master Finish include:

  • Create instant curb appeal - Homeowners can make updates to small exterior items like house numbers, light fixtures and mailboxes. Small upgrades like these can add instant curb appeal to a home's facade, creating an inviting aesthetic to welcome long weekend guests, in as little as two hours with just one can of spray paint. At less than $8 a can, these projects are a low time and budget investment that deliver high ROI for holiday weekend entertaining.
  • Beautify the backyard - Homeowners can turn flowerpots and beds into colorful backyard focal points by adding a fresh coat of paint or creating a fun design. Available in 22 colors, Glidden Master Finish offers a hue to fit any backyard aesthetic.
  • Take a seat (or two) - Summer parties, strong sunshine and summer rains can all give outdoor furniture a beating by mid-year. With a few additional cans of Master Finish and a few more hours to spare, homeowners can revitalize their outdoor furniture before Labor Day. A table and four chairs can be refreshed in just one day using 3-6 cans of spray paint, depending on the size and number of furniture pieces.

'With a dry time of less than 5 minutes, Glidden Master Finish is a great option for quick end-of-summer projects, making sure your space looks refreshed in time for the long weekend, while still allowing you time to enjoy the mental refresh that comes with the extra day off of work,' said Cindric.

The best part is that picking up a can of Glidden Master Finish doesn't add an extra stop to your errands and party prep shopping. This spray paint is available at select Walmart stores and on Walmart.com, so homeowners can grab a can on-the-go, while shopping for cookout supplies, beverages and snacks or, for parents looking ahead wishfully ... back-to-school gear.

Glidden Master Finish can be used on all surfaces including vinyl, wood, metal, plastic, terracotta and glass. It is available in matte, satin and gloss finishes.
