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.

Eargo and NationsBenefits Announce Strategic Partnership

SAN JOSE, Calif., Dec. 12, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eargo, Inc.

The partnership will allow health plan members served by NationsBenefits to use their plan benefits towards purchasing Eargo Over-the-Counter (OTC) hearing aids starting on January 1, 2023.

NationsBenefits currently serves millions of members across the United States by partnering with managed care organizations to provide customizable healthcare solutions through a diverse offering of supplemental benefits. This comprehensive approach allows NationsBenefits to optimize delivery of value-based solutions for health plan members rather than focusing on a single benefit.

Following the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)’s recent landmark regulation establishing a new category of OTC hearing aids, Eargo and NationsBenefits are focused through this partnership on creating a pathway for individuals with hearing loss that lowers barriers to care and offers increased access to high-quality, technology-advanced hearing aids and oversight that ensures people have access to the right products for their individual needs.

Christian Gormsen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eargo, said, “NationsBenefits’ reputation as a premier, innovative supplemental benefits manager speaks for itself, and we are excited to partner with an organization that shares our values on customer satisfaction and using technology to enhance the customer experience. Both Eargo and NationsBenefits are focused on advancing access to quality hearing aid technology with the aim of reducing the poor health outcomes and increased healthcare costs associated with untreated hearing loss. Together, we believe that Eargo hearing aids represent a compelling solution at an affordable cost for the millions of people with hearing loss who have not yet sought care or treatment.”

Glenn Parker, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of NationsBenefits, said, “Our driving mission is always centered around enhancing the overall experience for the millions of health plan members served by NationsBenefits. That means maximizing member choice, offering differentiated products and services, and ensuring seamless benefit delivery. To that end, we are thrilled to partner with Eargo and offer their differentiated, virtually invisible, rechargeable OTC hearing aid products to members. Combined with their robust support capabilities and focus on customer satisfaction, this partnership with Eargo delivers on the promise to members in providing an outstanding customer experience.”
