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.

A Legacy of Trust and Excellence

Founded in 1989 by Joe Hale, Hale’s Automotive began as a small two-bay shop and has since grown into a 15,000-square-foot facility serving both personal vehicles and commercial fleets. After a devastating fire in 2013, the current location was built to serve the Marion community better than ever before.

In 2023, Matt Mevert took over Hale’s Automotive and has carried on the strong foundation built by Joe Hale, one rooted in integrity, quality service, and community trust. With the Open House, Mevert and his team are excited to welcome new customers, reconnect with longtime supporters, and showcase what makes Hale’s Automotive a dependable and valued part of the Marion community.

Where Quality Work Meets Genuine Care

Hale’s Automotive provides a wide range of services, including auto and truck repair, heavy-duty diesel repair, fleet maintenance, alignments (including semi-truck alignments), tire sales, brake repair, hybrid service, RV maintenance, and even Illinois State Safety Lane Testing for heavy-duty vehicles and buses.

With a team of ASE Master Technicians, AAA-approved auto repair certification, and a NAPA AutoCare Gold Certification, Hale’s continues to raise the bar for automotive care in Southern Illinois.

All Are Welcome, Let’s Make It a Community Day

Whether you’re a long-time customer or just getting to know the shop, Hale’s encourages everyone, families, fleet managers, and fellow local businesses to stop by, grab a bite, tour the shop, and enjoy the festivities.

No purchase is necessary to enter the giveaways, and guests are welcome to bring friends and family along. This is a family-friendly event designed to create connections and share what makes Hale’s Automotive different: commitment, care, and community.
