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.

Fortrea Releases Inaugural Corporate Social Responsibility Report

DURHAM, N.C., Oct. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fortrea (Nasdaq: FTRE), a leading global contract research organization (CRO), today announced the release of the company’s inaugural Corporate Social Responsibility report, “Fortrea for Better.”

Available for download on Fortrea.com, the report describes Fortrea’s environmental, social and governance (ESG) activities, reported across four distinct sections:

  • Fortrea for Life: Responsible Environmental Practices
  • Fortrea for All: Responsible People Practices
  • Fortrea for Good: Responsible Societal Practices
  • Fortrea for Integrity: Responsible Governance Practices

“’Fortrea for Better’ reflects our dedication to minimizing our environmental impact, supporting our employees and the communities where we work, and following ethical governance practices in everything we do,” said Sandy Kennedy, chief quality, regulatory affairs and sustainability officer, who also chairs the company’s ESG Steering Committee.

The report details Fortrea’s first-year accomplishments as an independent public company. In one example, an old mail-order warehouse in the UK was refurbished into a 100-bed clinic with space for 300 employees. The site was recognized with an environmental certification based on performance in energy conservation, material usage, water consumption and waste disposal.

Another area of focus is the company’s Employee Resource Groups (ERGs), which are voluntary, employee-led groups of individuals who identify with historically marginalized communities and share common interests or experiences. They are designed to help members feel welcome and comfortable to have open discussions in a safe environment. There are presently eight ERGs at Fortrea, with almost 4,000 active members.

Fortrea’s CSR report also outlines the company’s future ESG roadmap, a multi-year process that includes an established agenda, oversight and reporting. Fortrea has joined the United Nations Global Compact Initiative and committed to the Science Based Targets Initiative. Chairman and CEO Tom Pike has joined more than 2,500 CEOs pledging to support DEI as signatories of the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion™. Further, Fortrea recently made its inaugural submission to EcoVadis, a globally trusted provider of business sustainability ratings, and is developing its first environmental report for CDP, a not-for-profit charity that runs a disclosure system for environmental impact. Based on its achievements and commitments to date, Fortrea is well positioned to meet the required reporting regulations expected in 2026.

“I am very proud of the progress we’ve made in a relatively short period of time,” said Tom Pike in his introduction to the report. “It is a testament to the dedication of our employees who have embraced our new culture with enthusiasm.”
