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.

With Only 1 in 3 Workers in Europe Excited to Use AI, Trust Boosts Confidence at 100 Best in Europe

Oakland, Calif., Oct. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a new partnership with Fortune Europe, Great Place To Work® has announced the first ever Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For™ Europe List.

To select the list, Great Place To Work surveyed 1.3 million employees across Europe about experiences that build trust in the workplace. Of those, 1 million responses came from companies eligible for the list, and this ranking is based on that feedback.

To be considered for the list, companies must have 500 or more employees and be recognized on national Best Workplaces™ lists in Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Türkiye, or the United Kingdom during 2023 or early 2024. 

These companies dramatically outperform the typical workplace in Europe, as measured by a market study of 26,000 European workers conducted by Great Place To Work. What sets winning companies apart from the typical workplace in Europe? Fairness.

At the 100 Best, 78% of employees say promotions are fair and 70% say they receive a fair share of company profits. That’s a significant increase over the typical workplace, where only 37% say promotions are fair and 36% say they receive a fair share of profits.

“Congratulations to the 100 Best Companies to Work For in Europe,” says Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work. “Despite the economic challenges facing them, these companies found ways to offer more support to their people, developing a foundation of trust that is crucial for business success in the years ahead.”

"We are delighted to unveil our inaugural list of the 100 Best Companies to Work For in Europe, created in partnership with Great Place to Work, experts in evaluating corporate culture with decades of experience,” says Grethe Schepers, lists director, Europe at Fortune. “These companies have built environments where people thrive and feel included, driven by a shared sense of purpose - all backed by honest, detailed employee feedback. Congratulations to all the companies that have achieved this great recognition."

Ready for AI

Only one in three workers at typical European workplaces are excited to use AI tools and only one in four reports that their company is making meaningful investments in training and development on AI skills.

This data suggests European companies will face friction when trying to introduce AI systems to the workplace. By building trust with workers, 100 Best companies are creating cultures that will innovate faster and more quickly adapt to change.

Fairness also connects with how employees view the addition of AI to the workplace. At typical European companies, when employees say promotions are fair, they are 29% more likely to also say they are excited to use AI.

Who made the list?

Companies on the list were separated into two categories with 25 multinational companies selected and 75 large companies with 500 or more employees. Multinational companies must appear on at least three national Best Workplaces™ lists in Europe.

Here are the top five multinationals on the list:

1. DHL Express
2. AbbVie
3. Hilti
4. Hilton
5. Cisco

Here are the top five large companies:

1. Bank van Breda
2. Sparbanken Skåne
3. XM
4. Beierholm
5. Sii Polska
