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: Asia embraces coal-powered production

By Timothy S. Snyder, Matador Economics

In market trends and policy developments, the Global Energy Monitor (GEM) indicates coal powered energy production is growing wildly, as “Asia’s largest economies have three times more coal-fired capacity under construction than gas-fired capacity” according to Alex Kimani in Oilprice.com.

The GEM report also posts that across 10 of Asia’s largest economies, there is just over 1 million megawatts of new power generation, with only 7% of that number coming from natural gas. Is this a trend or just an anomaly?

This is just more of the all-of-the-above approach to power generation and it is focused on the true cost of construction and power generation, and the markets will determine this for each of the economies identified. It appears the single “renewable source approach” has been replaced.

In a related story, while India’s consumption of Russian crude oil has dropped to a two-year low, China’s Russian oil imports are growing again. Once again, single source energy is replaced with traditional alternatives. This is worth watching.

Not surprisingly, OPEC+ is discussing the possibility of not ramping-up their crude oil production, as the threat of U.S. tariffs has market share realities up in the air.

According to a Julieanne Geiger report in Oilprice.com, “OPEC+ is still weighing its Q2 oil production plans, according to eight OPEC+ sources who spoke to Reuters this week—with Trump-incited complications creating an uncertain future for oil market balance.” This is a good development for world energy competition & share balance.

Markets liked this morning’s Personal Consumption Expenditures numbers, even if they only met expectations. Crypto is still taking it on the chin. Personal income was as expected, but personal spending came in -0.5% on expectations of +0.1%.

U.S. winter weather

Harsh cold front is pushing strong winds from Montana to Kentucky and will bring snow this weekend all the way to the Northeast. In the South Central U.S. (DFW-Little Rock) thunderstorms will kick up as March “comes in like a lion.”
