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.

Easy ways to make your next big moment stick

(BPT) - When you think of some of the most important moments in your life, from birthdays, school projects, holidays, moving and even home decorating, what comes to mind? The key to making those special moments "stick" are Scotch™ Brand products. For the past 100 years, Scotch™ Brand has been the unsung hero throughout countless moments of creativity, celebration and repair. From minor fixes to major milestones and all the memorable moments in between.

Whether you're sealing packages for an upcoming move, designing a DIY statement wall with vibrant colors or creating your new vision board for the year, Scotch™ Brand continues to be a staple in homes, classrooms and workplaces worldwide. Built on a legacy of resourcefulness and ingenuity, Scotch™ Brand is kicking off its centennial milestone with "The Next 100 Project." Scotch™ Brand is encouraging consumers to turn ideas into reality and create, capture, share and celebrate all the special moments they want to stick for the next 100 years. From Feb. 25 through March 31, 2025, consumers can visit Scotchbrand.com/Scotch100Giveaway to complete their entry form and describe what they're creating next with Scotch™ Brand for a chance to win a limited-edition Scotch™ Brand instant print camera. Winners will be selected at random in April 2025.

To commemorate this milestone achievement, Scotch™ Brand partnered with Jenn Todryk, Scotch Brand ambassador and home solutions expert, to share tips to help you organize, redecorate and plan future projects so you can make your special moments stick.

1. Organize and envision it

When your kids are busy like mine are, you'll want to be sure that everything they've got has their names on it. You can use Scotch® Magic™ Tape to help you clearly label their water bottles, notebooks and more before they head out to their new extracurricular activities, classes or summer camps. The beauty of this go-to matte-finish tape is that it has hundreds of uses, and it's invisible when applied - plus you can write on it using pen, pencil or marker for easy labeling.

I also like to start each year or season by making a vision board full of images that capture my goals, desires and dreams for the upcoming months. Scotch® Magic™ Tape helps me create a clear reminder of my "why" - the purpose behind the goals that I'm striving for - in a fun, concrete and visual way.

2. Move it or declutter it

Whether you've got an upcoming move planned, perhaps a college student moving away to campus this year - or you just want to start working on decluttering your home, Scotch® Heavy Duty Packaging Tape is your new best friend. I love that just one strip of this tape gets the job done, sticks instantly to cardboard boxes and creates a secure seal over box edges. Built with ultimate strength, it can hold up to 80 pounds, which makes it great for shipping supplies or gifts to my friends and family, knowing that my packages will stay safe and secure.

I also like to have plenty of packaging tape on hand when I'm in declutter mode. There's no better feeling than clearing out and donating gently used items that someone else may need.

3. Let your home make a statement

Are you dreaming of repainting a room, or creating a colorful statement wall? I love the energy I get from a home decorating project, and I like to create unique designs that reflect my personal style. It's easier than you think to achieve the look you want if you have the right supplies. Along with choosing great paint colors and getting the brushes and rollers you need, you'll want to stock up on ScotchBlue™ PROSharp Painters Tape with Edge-Lock™+ that seals out paint to ensure you have the sharpest, cleanest paint lines possible.

With the help of Scotch™ Brand, I've been able to tackle so many memorable projects throughout the years and create special moments that really stick. I even made my latest DIY room reno look like a professional job thanks to this new tape's premium adhesive, along with its semi-smooth crepe backing with multiple layers - I can tell you, it really protects against paint bleed. The results were amazing. I'm totally ready to tackle another room right now!
