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.

Energy Brief Today: Markets wary of action on tariffs and sanctions

Energy Brief Today: Markets wary of action on tariffs and sanctions

By Timothy S. Snyder, Matador Economics

Markets are still sideways as tariffs loom and sanctions grow. Yesterday’s trade showed crude oil adding just 30 cents per barrel in the West Texas Intermediate and just 38 cents in the Brent.

Expectations for weakening economics within the U.S. over the next few months have futures leaning neutral to lower. This is a result of expectations on tariffs and indecision as to whether they will hurt or help the U.S. economy.

I am not one of those economists that point-blank opposes tariffs. Many of us believe the negotiating tactics merely shorten the timetable to get a desired end result. Allowing time to play a part in negotiating tariffs, to level the international trade playing field, would continue to allow the U.S. economy to move into troubling territory.

Balancing the U.S. trade deficit is a first step, and it’s one of the easiest steps to take to reducing debt. It also forces spending in the U.S. back in line with the government’s annual needs; not to mention “Not” adding to U.S. debt of over $36 trillion.

The U.S. has sanctioned Indian transportation firms that continue to ship Iranian oil to India. Stay tuned, as this is beginning to heat up!

Last night’s Retail On-Highway Fuel Prices showed gasoline dropped 2.3 cents per gallon with diesel fuel rising 2.0 cents per gallon. As we are just a couple weeks from Spring Break, it’s the time of the year that demand begins to build and at the end of March, we’ll see the change to the summer blends of gasoline.

U.S. winter weather

Warmer and foggy in the South Central U.S. The East coast will begin to warm up, and that will push north throughout New England. Northwest will see strong winds and rain, Southwest dry!

Market drivers for today

  • Indian transportation firms get sanctioned for shipping Iranian oil
  • Trump wants to restart the Keystone XL Pipeline. Won’t be easy
  • Retail Gasoline price fell 2.3 cpg, Diesel price rose 2.0 cpg
