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.

IRCC Invites 1,325 Candidates To The Latest Express Entry Draw For All Programs

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has issued Invitations to Apply (ITA) in the latest Express Entry draw.

The department invited 1,325 candidates to apply in an Express Entry draw across all programs. Candidates needed a minimum Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS) of 542 to be eligible for an ITA.


The next Express Entry draw follows the most recent results on December 8, in which 5,900 candidates received an ITA with a minimum CRS of 481 in a category-based selection draw for candidates in STEM occupations. On December 7, a category draw was held for people fluent in the French language, to which 1,000 candidates from the Express Entry group with a minimum CRS of 470 were invited.


There was also an all-program Express Entry draw on December 6 for candidates with a minimum CRS of 561. It was the first draw to take place in over a month. Before that, the most recent drawing was a category-based selection drawing for candidates in healthcare occupations on October 26.


IRCC did not confirm the cause of the temporary pause in draws. However, on November 14, the department tweeted that there was an IT issue with the Express Entry profile builder for candidates who had received an ITA and were attempting to upload their applications to the IRCC website.


Two days later, on November 16, the department reported that the problem had been fixed, but drawings did not immediately resume as expected. There are many possible reasons why IRCC may delay the next Express Entry draw, for example, if they are already on track to meet the targets for Express Entry candidates set out in the Immigration Tiers Plan, IT issues, staff changes or updates to the Comprehensive Classification System.


Summary of Express Entry draw:



December 18: Entire program 1,325 542

December 8: STEM Occupations 5,900 481

December 7: Mastery of the French language 1,000 470

December 6: All programs

December 6: Entire program 4,750 561


What is Express Entry?


An Express Entry draw is ideal for evaluating candidates based on their human capital factors and then assigning them a score. The factors include work experience, language ability, education, age, and occupation.


Once candidates receive an ITA, they can submit their application to IRCC. The department has a six-month service standard to process Express Entry applications and issue a final decision.


What is category-based selection?


Last May, IRCC announced the introduction of category-based invitation selection rounds for Express Entry candidates.


Through these new rounds, the IRCC targets candidates with a specific, in-demand attribute that the Minister of Immigration believes will help strengthen Canada's workforce and economy. One of the six categories is aimed at Express Entry candidates with French language proficiency. The remaining five are for candidates who have work experience in a sector currently experiencing labour shortages in Canada, including:


  • Health care;
  • STEM professions;
  • Trade winds;
  • Transport; and
  • Agriculture and Agri-food


ITAs issued in category-based selection rounds will count toward the goals for highly skilled federal workers (Express Entry draw) in the Immigration Tiering Plan. Over the next three years, Canada will admit up to 114,000 new permanent residents yearly via the Next Express Entry draw until the end of 2025.
