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.

Thousands Trained Through CSX Community Safety Initiatives in 2023

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Jan. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CSX (NASDAQ: CSX) continued to prioritize public safety in 2023 with a robust first responder training program that reached over 6,000 individuals in communities across its rail network.

The company held over 60 sessions covering hazardous materials handling and incident response tactics, ensuring that first responders, contractors and local government officials are informed and prepared to handle potential emergencies on and around railroad property.

"CSX takes pride in offering best-in-class safety training,” said Joe Hinrichs, president and chief executive officer of CSX. “Our ONE CSX collaborative culture is deeply rooted in safeguarding our communities and working closely with the first responders who share our safety commitment. Through classroom, virtual and hands-on trainings, we provide first responders with the confidence and skills necessary to effectively manage rail-related incidents, which helps protect our communities, employees and customers."

A highlight of the year was Responder Incident Training (RIT) train events hosted by CSX. This innovative program features a specially designed train that travels the CSX network to deliver advanced, tailored hazardous materials safety training. A total of 856 first responders and emergency response contractors benefited from these RIT train sessions, gaining valuable insights and skills for responding to potential rail incidents.

The CSX Police Department also played a key role in the company's 2023 safety initiatives, providing specialized training to 1,549 first responders. This training is part of CSX's ongoing commitment to safeguarding the communities it serves.

"The partnership between CSX and first responders is really important," emphasized Columbus, Ohio, Fire Chief Jeff Happ, who attended a 2023 RIT train event. "CSX brings to the table a deep understanding and mastery of their equipment, and their willingness to impart that knowledge to us is invaluable. In the event of an emergency, this shared expertise allows us to protect our community in the best way possible."

Further underscoring its dedication to public safety, CSX has a Community Affairs and an Incident Reduction team that provide rail safety education in communities across the railroad’s 26-state territory. These efforts help reduce incidents near trains and railroad tracks and instruct first responders on safe, efficient and effective railroad-related incident response. In addition, the company actively promotes Rail Safety Week, an annual nationwide campaign designed to educate communities about safe behaviors near railroad tracks.

"Safety is not just an individual responsibility, it's a collective commitment at CSX. Our approach to safety training is reflective of that,” Hinrichs said. “It’s crucial that we equip our employees, first responders and communities with the knowledge to make safe decisions around tracks and trains to minimize risk and ensure everyone’s wellbeing.”
