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.

California pushes major airlines to adopt renewable fuels

California pushes major airlines to adopt renewable fuels

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has announced a new initiative to nudge major airlines to transition to sustainable aviation fuel. 

The goal of the new program is to ramp up sustainable aviation fuel use in California airports to 200 million gallons by 2035. Based on CARB estimates, the goal would meet about 40% of current intrastate demand and represent a tenfold increase from current levels of sustainable aviation fuel usage.

Sustainable aviation fuel made from renewable biomass and/or waste has been proposed as a significant step forward for major U.S. airlines targeting net-zero carbon emissions in the decades ahead. By issuing state-level requirements, CARB is also opening the door for pushback from other states. 

For renewable fuel investors, the potential impact of the new effort could have a massive impact. California leads the nation in air travel by a wide margin with 214 airports. 

For companies like Darling Ingredients DAR and Valero Energy VLO who are active in the sustainable aviation fuel sector, the push to ramp up capacity to meet this fresh demand will be significant. Both firms recently announced new contracts to supply sustainable aviation fuel for delivery to both Midway International Airport in Chicago and John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York.

The Department of Energy reports that production capacity of sustainable aviation fuel in the United States could increase from around 2,000 barrels per day to nearly 30,000 barrels per day in 2024 if all announced capacity additions come on line. 

Two massive projects — the Phillip 66’s facility in Rodeo, California and the Diamond Green Diesel facility in Port Arthur, Texas — are expected to account for the lion’s share of this growth. 

While the industry group Airlines for America estimates that jet travel accounts for only 2% of U.S. carbon emissions, the organization’s member pledge to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 has made it a highly visible voice.

Leaon, Nuveen investing in Longevity Partners

The London-based consultancy Longevity Partners announced on Friday strategic investments from Leon Capital and Nuveen. Founded in 2015, Longevity focuses on sustainability technology for real estate and infrastructure markets. The investment is the latest in a string of green real asset investments for Nuveen. In 2021, the asset manager acquired sustainable real estate credit investor Greenworks Lending which was rebranded as Nuveen Green Capital. 

Canadian regulators announce new emissions regulations

The Canadian Ministry of Environment and Climate Change revealed new proposed regulations on Monday to cap greenhouse gas emissions from the oil and gas sector by 35% from 2019 levels. The proposed rules lower the target for fossil fuel producers from the 38% originally discussed levels outlined for comment earlier this year.  The new rules, expected to come into effect in early 2025, have received strong pushback from Canadian energy industry groups who claim that the measures will cost jobs. 

New impact ETF issuance in Europe outpaces US

While the stream of new impact focused ETF offerings in the U.S. has slowed to a trickle, the European market continues to expand. Last week, Fidelity International announced the debut of the Fidelity Sustainable High Yield Bond Paris-Aligned ETF — in both Euro and U.S. dollar denominated versions, on the London Stock Exchange.

The listing follows one on the Deutsche Boerse for both funds over the summer. Fidelity International has been an entirely separate company from Fidelity Investments following a spin-off in the 1980s, although the Johnson family remains a significant shareholder of the Bermuda-based firm.
