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: Tariffs consume the markets

Energy Brief Today: Tariffs consume the markets

By Timothy S. Snyder, Matador Economics

With threats of tariffs increasing, the markets took a nose dive yesterday. Equities were lower on concerns over a slowing economy. To that point, the Atlanta FED released in a statement that they expect to see a contracting economy in the first quarter of 2025.

If prices continue to inflate, markets could see stagflation develop if Fed Chairman Jerome Powell overplays his hand too late! This is the proverbial “slippery slope.” Can’t allow the economy to dissolve into a flat mess! 

Now comes the trade wars as there was a report that a Dodge Ram Truck, with a sticker price of $80,000 just became $100,000 because of the tariffs.

We must remember a tariff for the sake of having flexing a muscle, has little long term effect. This is not what the Administration wants to see. They want to bring recipients of the tariffs to the negotiating table and repair our trade deficit. We don’t want to endure the tariffs very long, so expect a quick-ish resolution.

As tariffs began at midnight on Canada, Mexico and increased tariffs on China, tonight President Trump will address a joint session of Congress. We’re told to expect a “Jerry Springer-like” show from across the aisle, as one wonders what ever happened to decorum in Congress and respect for the Office of the President. This is apparently the place where reality television meets the State of the Union. 

U.S. winter weather

Early morning storms blew through the DFW Metroplex, heading east quickly, but strong winds will be the concern for the rest of the day as fire watches and warnings replace the severe thunderstorm warnings and of course there’s blizzard warnings in the Midwest. What a day!
