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.

Wish Signs Satirical YouTubers Zac Alsop and Grandpa Ray to Front its Fashion Category

SAN FRANCISCO, March 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ContextLogic Inc. (d/b/a Wish) (NASDAQ: WISH), one of the world’s largest mobile ecommerce platforms, today announced it has signed satirical YouTubers Zac Alsop and Grandpa Ray to be the face of its fashion category in a campaign that will run from March through to May 2024.

The deal has been secured one year on from the serial pranksters faking their way to the top of 2023’s London Fashion Week by dressing ‘Grandpa Ray’ in a range of outfits styled from everyday household items - including slippers, googly eyes, inflatables, mini umbrellas - all bought exclusively from Wish. The prank, which was the brainchild of YouTuber Zac Alsop, led to the tongue-in-cheek Wish looks being featured in high-end fashion magazines and across London Fashion Week’s social media pages.

This year, the duo are back and have been tasked with creating a ream of fresh content that pokes fun at the luxury fashion industry in a lighthearted, comical way. Armed with knee pads, inflatable jackets, washing up gloves, skipping ropes and tennis balls, Zac and Grandpa Ray have created a whole new set of looks designed to give the big fashion houses a run for their money.

The three month campaign will run across Wish’s Instagram, Facebook and TikTok channels, and will be supported in-app through Grandpa Ray’s curated collection of goodies - Ray’s Picks - which is live on Wish now. Use the promo code ZACALSOP5 to get an additional 5% off until May 31st, 2024.

“Luxury fashion memes have long provided comic relief for an industry that often takes itself far too seriously,” said Jackie Gulliver, VP of Marketing at Wish. “Zac Alsop and Grandpa Ray are masters of satirical content and they’re also fans of Wish, so a tie-up was a natural next step.”

“Wish is all about bringing fun and entertainment to the shopping experience, so we’re excited to be working with content creators who are pushing creative boundaries to entertain.”
