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.

Trex Company Launches ‘Trex x Carmen Johnston Spring Refresh Giveaway’

WINCHESTER, Va., April 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Imagine transforming your home’s outdoor space into a relaxing and inviting oasis just in time for summer. In conjunction with April’s Earth Day and Earth Month observances, Trex Company, [NYSE: TREX], the world’s largest manufacturer of high-performance, low-maintenance wood-alternative decking and railing, is teaming with celebrity landscape designer Carmen Johnston to make this dream a reality for one lucky outdoor living enthusiast through the “Trex x Carmen Johnston Spring Refresh Giveaway,” which kicks off today.

“Founded on sustainable principles, Trex celebrates Earth Day every day, making our partnership with Carmen Johnston, who keeps sustainability at the forefront of her designs, a natural collaboration,” said Leslie Adkins, vice president of marketing and ESG development at Trex. “Between Carmen’s expertise, and the many products and resources available from Trex, the winner of this sweepstakes will receive all the guidance and tools they need to start planning their ideal outdoor living space.”

Founder and owner of Carmen Johnston’s Gardens, Johnston is an accomplished outdoor living designer whose work has been featured by such high-profile media outlets as Garden & Gun, Southern Living, Country Living and across HGTV’s magazine, television and social platforms. As the landscape expert for the HGTV® Smart Home 2022 and 2023, Carmen has gained experience working with Trex’s extensive portfolio of outdoor living products while designing the homes’ exterior spaces.

“Creating beautiful spaces that encourage outdoor living and family memories—summer sunsets, s’mores, cozy fireside chats, spring in bloom—is my starting vision for every design,” said Johnston. “The team at Trex shares that vision, and they make it easier for homeowners to create their dream outdoor living spaces with products that are stylish, durable, hassle-free and easy on the environment.”

The entire portfolio of Trex composite decking is sustainably made from 95% recycled and reclaimed materials, including a mix of industrial wood scrap and discarded polyethylene plastic film from commercial packaging and common household items such as case overwraps, sandwich bags, newspaper sleeves and grocery bags. Each year, Trex saves nearly 1 billion (with a B!) pounds of these materials from winding up in landfills. One of the largest recyclers of plastic film in North America, Trex has upcycled in excess of 5 billion pounds of plastic film waste in the making of its outdoor living products over the past 30 years. Trex also operates a manufacturing process that is as green as its final product, with a proprietary method that recycles factory refuse back into the manufacturing line.

The winner of the “Trex x Carmen Johnston Spring Refresh Giveaway” will receive an outdoor living prize package consisting of a one-hour design consultation with Carmen Johnston, a Monterey Bay five-piece round bar set from the eco-friendly Trex® Outdoor Furniture™ Collection, and a $200 gift card to help bring their space to life. Entrants who don’t win may still benefit from Johnston’s expertise by reviewing inspirational deck plans designed exclusively for Trex, showcasing how to create eco-friendly outdoor living areas for spaces of any size.

To enter, visit www.trex.com/deck-ideas/carmen-johnston-spring-refresh-giveaway/ and follow the simple instructions. The winner will be announced in May and will be required to create a testimonial with Trex Company, which will be featured on Trex.com as well as across Trex’s social media platforms.

Entries will be accepted through 11:59pm ET on Sunday, April 30, 2023, and there is a limit of one entry per email address per day.
