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.

Alterna Cremation Owner Believed To Be First Woman To Build A Crematorium In Manitoba

WINNIPEG, MB:  Ashley Newton, the founder and owner of Alterna Cremation in Winnipeg, is believed to be the first woman to construct a crematorium in the province of Manitoba.  Alterna, an alternative funeral home offering simple, transparent direct cremation services, is currently building a new crematorium in St. Andrews, and construction is moving fast!  

 

Alterna Cremation was established in 2019 by Ashley Newton, a dedicated young woman who saw the growing need for a streamlined and straightforward alternative to more traditional funeral services in Manitoba.  Over the years, Ashley’s compassionate approach and commitment to dignified, direct cremation services have earned her widespread recognition and distinguished her as a beloved figure to countless grieving families.  Raising two children while growing Alterna hasn’t been easy, but Ashley and her all-female team have become well known for their integrity, transparency, and personalized professional service in a traditionally male-dominated industry.  

 

This year marks a major milestone for Alterna Cremation: The building of a new crematorium in St. Andrews.  Ashley has been nurturing the vision for this project for years and couldn’t be more pleased to finally witness construction underway!  Currently, Alterna performs its cremation services in nearby Selkirk, Manitoba, but the completion of the new space will bring everything in-house and allow for the expansion of compassionate services to more Manitoba families.  The project began in late spring of 2025, and construction is ongoing.  

 

Ashley is passionate about her work and fiercely proud of being the first woman in Manitoba to build a crematorium (as far as she knows).  “I’m incredibly grateful for the encouragement I’ve received from friends, family, and client families,” she wrote on social media.  “But I also want to be clear - the financial investment behind this project has been entirely mine.  No corporate partners.  No silent investors.  Just one woman doing her best to build something meaningful for the community.”
