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.

VGR Leads Application Process, Secures $1.63M Site Development Grant

Virginia's Gateway Region

Virginia's Gateway Region Economic Development Organization

~ A total of 11 Gateway Region sites are to be developed and ready for business ~

Of all the potential developable sites in Virginia, one third of them are located in this region … ”
— Keith Boswell, VGR President and CEO

COLONIAL HEIGHTS, VA., U.S.A., July 1, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- On June 15, GO Virginia approved Virginia’s Gateway Region’s $1.63 million site development grant request to improve a total of 15 sites to a Tier 4 level on the Virginia Business Ready Sites Program in GO Virginia Region 4. More importantly, 11 of the 15 sites to be developed are in the Gateway Region.

“Much work will need to be done over the next year or so to complete this grant, but ‘we are on our way’,” said VGR President & CEO Keith Boswell. “We are part of the Commonwealth’s GO Virginia Region 4. Of all the potential developable sites in Virginia, one third of them are located in this region … This grant allows us to move 11 more sites to a Tier 4 status, which means the sites are in prime condition for a prospective company to locate there and build out a new facility.”

“We are pleased our region was successful with this grant application and our goal is to increase the economic competitiveness of our communities,” said Wilson H. Flohr, Jr., CEO of the Grow Capital Jobs Foundation.

The Virginia Economic Development Partnership’s Virginia Business Ready Sites Program characterizes sites to assess and designate their current level of development. Site development, such as in this case, is when a pool of potential sites across the Commonwealth are further developed. All of these sites are being advanced into Tier 4, which is defined by VEDP as a site where all infrastructure is in place or will be deliverable within 12 months, and where all permit issues have been identified and quantified.

Before VGR engaged in the grant application process with GO Virginia, there were three Tier 4 sites available, which means the site development grant award will quadruple the number of sites that are available in the Gateway Region. VGR’s end goal is to have several new projects announced in the Gateway Region, resulting in new jobs and investment for the regional economy.

The lifeblood of economic development is site readiness. One of the top priorities in economic development is fighting to win attraction projects to add jobs to the local and regional economy and expand the tax base. In order to win site selection projects, the region must have a variety of buildings and land available to propose to potential prospects. If a region does not have a variety of shovel-ready sites, consultants and company executives will move on to a different region.
