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.

Republican wins could spell the end of Biden-era renewable energy investments

Republican wins could spell the end of Biden-era renewable energy investments

Donald Trump is making a historic return to the White House following a strong showing in Tuesday’s U.S. election. In congressional races, Trump’s Republican party won a majority in the Senate, but counting continues for control of the House.  

Impact focused investors  — particularly those focused on sectors like renewable energy and healthcare — could see a second Trump administration and a Republican-controlled Congress rapidly roll back Biden-era initiatives. 

Tobin Marcus, a macro strategist at Wolfe Research, said in a research note for clients published early Wednesday that House control is relevant to markets primarily in terms of fiscal questions, like tax cuts, IRA rollback, Affordable Care Act (ACA) tax credits, Medicaid cuts, and deficits/rates. 

“If Republicans fall short in the House, that would be bullish for clean energy and for healthcare names levered to Medicaid/ACA, and bearish for REITs and MLPs based on sector-specific tax risks,” Marcus added.

The potential impact on U.S. equity markets of these policy shifts may be dramatic. 

During the lead-up to the election, Dan Clifton, head of policy research at Strategas, constructed stock portfolios levered to a victory by either party. Key themes represented by the basket most sensitive to the political fortunes of Democrats included electric vehicles and green energy stocks, like Clearway Energy CWEN

Meanwhile, stocks like insurance giant HCA Healthcare HCA and consumer staples companies such as General Mills GIS could face headwinds if Republican leaders undermine ACA subsidies and safety net support.

If Republicans win the House, among the likely policy changes that a Republican-controlled Washington would pursue is a second withdrawal from the Paris Agreement on climate change.

Trump withdrew from the climate agreement, but President Joe Biden rejoined on his first day in office in 2021. According to some analysts, this retreat could leave China as the de facto leader of the international body

UBS predicts China to hit peak oil demand by 2029

In a report issued on Wednesday, the UBS energy research team led by Amily Guo concluded that China will reach peak oil demand by 2029. According to UBS analysis, China’s oil consumption — which expanded between 2010 and 2023 to account for 54% of global demand — will moderate by 22% in the coming half decade as increased renewable energy and electric vehicle adoption shift the world’s second largest economy away from fossil fuels. 

World Bank says Poland reaching net-zero targets will boost growth.

The World Bank released a new report on Wednesday projecting that reaching net-zero carbon targets by 2050 will significantly boost Poland’s economic competitiveness. Currently Poland is the world’s 9th largest coal consumer despite ranking as the 21st largest economy and the 37th by population. 

Poland has pledged to eliminate coal mining by 2049 as part of an EU shift from fossil fuels. The World Bank estimates that Poland — with an estimated 40,000 premature deaths per year, currently has the highest number of deaths attributable to air pollution in Europe.

Oklahoma anti-renewable energy law heads to state Supreme Court

The Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs (OCPA), an anti-environmental lobbying group, released a statement on Tuesday arguing that the Oklahoma Public Employees’ Retirement System (OPERS) decision to reduce portfolio allocations to fossil fuel producers has “already cost the state a million dollars annually.” 

OPCA has lobbied for enforcement of the Energy Discrimination Elimination Act. The legislation passed in 2022 aims to prevent public funds from eliminating oil, gas, and coal producers from their investments. Currently the law is not being enforced as litigation brought by OPERS works its way to the Oklahoma Supreme Court
