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.

Spruce up your space: Remodel with the right mini-split

By: Brandpoint

(BPT) - The COVID-19 pandemic spurred a surge in home renovations as people spent more time at home. Many tackled DIY projects, like converting garages or building tiny homes, to meet new needs and create ideal living spaces. Post-pandemic, the focus has shifted to smaller, more affordable projects. However, some homeowners find their new spaces uncomfortable due to significant temperature differences from the rest of the home.

Elevate your remodel with a smart HVAC system

If you recently completed a renovation project, or are making future plans to do so, one key consideration you may not have thought of yet is the ability to maintain temperature control within the home, while remaining energy efficient. A mini-split is the perfect answer for spaces that require flexible heating and cooling solutions, like older homes, spaces with room and structure upgrades, tiny homes or converted garages. In addition, they are an affordable and efficient option, making them an excellent choice for those looking to improve their space on a budget.

Mix it up with a mini-split

A mini-split, also known as a ductless system, is a compact HVAC system that can efficiently heat and cool small spaces, apartments, and other areas where ductwork isn't practical or feasible. Like a standard central HVAC system, a mini-split consists of two primary components: an outdoor compressor/condenser unit and one or more indoor air handlers.

Because of their size and relative simplicity, mini-splits are ideal for use in new additions to a home and as a solution for smaller spaces like offices. They are also commonly used in apartment complexes and hotels where multiple small spaces require individual temperature controls.

You might be wondering what the benefits of a mini-split system may be compared to a standard heat pump or air conditioner. Here are just a few ways a mini-split may be the way to go:

  • Increased energy efficiency: Mini-split systems are known for their high energy efficiency. They use less energy compared to traditional HVAC systems, which can lead to significant savings on your utility bills. If you own a tiny home, for example, a ductless mini-split provides a strong combination of efficiency and simplicity for the space allotted.
  • Flexibility and zoning: One of the standout features of mini-split systems is their flexibility. They allow for zoning, meaning you can control the temperature in different rooms independently. This is particularly beneficial for homes with varying heating and cooling needs across different areas - like a colder basement, or warmer top floor.
  • Quiet: Mini-split systems typically operate more quietly than traditional HVAC systems. While Lennox manufactures some of the quietest central HVAC systems, mini-splits are great for spaces where maintaining quiet is important.

Don't DIY it

When incorporating a mini-split system into your home remodel, it's essential to professionally install the unit. While DIY projects can be tempting, an improper installation can lead to inefficiencies and potential damage to the system. A professional installer, or dealer, will ensure that your mini-split system is set up correctly and operates at its best. To locate your nearest dealer, visit Lennox.com.

Transform your space with cool solutions

If you're looking for a top-of-the-line mini-split system, consider the new Lennox Powered by Samsung Mini-Split. Its variable-capacity technology and efficiencies of up to 25.00 SEER2 and 11.00 HSPF2 (measurements that indicate better energy efficiency and lower electricity costs) make the system incredibly efficient. In addition, it integrates with Samsung's SmartThings app to easily regulate temperature, adjust settings and receive real-time updates about system performance.

By choosing a mini-split system like the Lennox Powered by Samsung, you can enhance your home's comfort, efficiency and overall value - making that once unusable space the perfect hangout. For more information on the Lennox Powered by Samsung Mini-Split, visit Lennox.com.
