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.

Risk Strategies Acquires The Baker Benefit Group, LLC

BOSTON, June 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Risk Strategies, a leading North American specialty insurance brokerage and risk management and consulting firm, today announced it has acquired The Baker Benefit Group, LLC (BBG), a retail firm providing ancillary employee benefits products at large employer groups. Terms of the deal were not announced.

Founded in 1999 and based in Falmouth, Maine and Ridgefield, Connecticut, BBG expands Risk Strategies capabilities in the executive benefits space. The firm’s primary focus is the design, implementation, and ongoing service of Individual Disability Insurance (IDI) plans.

“The Baker Benefit Group is coming to us with a complementary focus that will deepen our expertise in a meaningful way,” said John Greenbaum, National Employee Benefits Practice Leader, Risk Strategies. “Adding BBG to the Risk Strategies family enhances our ability to serve our clients. I’m excited by the possibilities.”

The Baker Benefit Group’s client focus has been large employer groups primarily based in the Northeast, with many operating both nationally and internationally. Among BGG’s clients are hospitals ranked among the country’s top 10, leading institutions within America’s top 15 universities, and one of the top-five global management consulting firms.

The complexity of creating, selling, and managing an effective ancillary benefit program requires focus and deep expertise. This dynamic fosters client trust and loyalty. “Our focused specialization is the engine driving our business success and client loyalty,” said Mark Baker, Founder and President, The Baker Benefit Group, LLC. “In Risk Strategies, we have found a partner to help us scale our business and offer more capabilities to our clients in addition to our specialty focus.”

A supplement to core employee benefits offerings like health insurance, ancillary benefits offer employers an effective recruitment tool and can also help boost employee retention by providing access to coverages that meet their needs in a more personalized way. Programs are often tailored to target key employees or roles within an organization.
