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.

Trump threatens IEA shakeup as energy agency predicts skyrocketing electricity demand

The International Energy Agency (IEA) released its annual World Energy Outlook report on Wednesday. Among the key conclusions are that global electricity demand will double in the coming decades — with a 6% increase in demand forecasted.

The IEA is an international organization that has provided industrialized governments with research and data to guide their energy policies for over five decades. IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol argued in a statement released with the new report that the current slump in oil prices provides an opening for governments to adopt more sustainable energy policies.

“The breathing space from fuel price pressures can provide policymakers with room to focus on stepping up investments in clean energy transitions and removing inefficient fossil fuel subsidies,” Birol said, adding: “This means government policies and consumer choices will have huge consequences for the future of the energy sector and for tackling climate change.”

These projections arrive at a time when the IEA is facing a potential leadership change that would alter the course of the agency’s policy goals.

Mario Loyola, a former Trump environmental advisor, said in an interview in Le Monde on Monday that “The U.S. should definitely come up with a strategy to replace the leadership at the IEA.” According to Loyola, if former President Donald Trump wins the U.S. presidential election next month, a shakeup at the IEA will be an early priority.

Reuters reported in May that advisors to Trump would use the clout of the U.S. within the IEA to replace the current leadership at the organization with a new, pro-fossil fuel director if Trump wins back the White House in November. The U.S. provides around 25% of the Paris-based group’s funding.

Plans to push for leadership change at IEA come from policy advocates at the Heritage Foundation, Reuters reported. The DC-based foundation, which drafted a policy blueprint for a new Trump administration and is in regular contact with the former president’s campaign, recently released a report arguing that global warming will have a negligible impact on U.S. ecosystems and making the case for expanding the use of fossil fuels.

The IEA was created by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in response to the oil crisis in the 1970s. The Biden administration has worked closely with the agency as it attempts to coordinate clean energy policies among its 31 member nations.

Adams corruption scandal could derail Prop 6

As embattled New York City Mayor Eric Adams faces an ever-widening corruption scandal, a proposal spearheaded by his administration is facing doubts. Proposition 6 would establish a Chief Business Diversity Officer to support minority and women-owned business enterprises. With Adams now facing criminal charges, including bribery, conspiracy, wire fraud and soliciting campaign contributions from foreign nationals, the outcome of Prop 6 in November is in doubt.
