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.

Voltus Again Recognized as a Leading Virtual Power Plant Aggregator in 2024 Wood Mackenzie VPP Report

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Voltus, Inc. (Voltus), the leading distributed energy resource (DER) software platform and virtual power plant (VPP) operator, today announced that it has been named a leader in the U.S. and Canadian VPP markets by Wood Mackenzie for the second consecutive year. In Wood Mackenzie’s annual report on the size of and outlook for the North American VPP market, Voltus received multiple accolades, including ranking highest in the number of VPPs that include commercial and industrial (C&I) utility customers and recognition for being “first-in-market” for high-reward ancillary services programs.

“Despite capacity accreditation setbacks in some markets for C&I demand response resources, Voltus remains a leader in the U.S. and Canadian VPP markets,” said Ben Hertz-Shargel, Global Head of Grid Edge, Wood Mackenzie. “Their staying power is a function of their commitment to innovation and, increasingly, the growing population of DER-owning residential customers.”

Since Voltus provided data for this report earlier this year, the company’s aggregate megawatts under management (MWUM) has increased by 20% to more than 7,000, representing approximately one-fifth of the total VPP capacity in the U.S. and Canada tracked by Wood Mackenzie.

“Wood Mackenzie’s DER and VPP reports are valuable resources for the power and utilities industry, and we’re honored to have the hard work of Voltus highlighted,” said Voltus President, Matthew Plante. “Our recent growth, which has been driven by partnerships with battery storage system developers, residential customers, and traditional, capacity-based demand response programs, reflects the fact that customers of all sizes recognize the financial opportunity available to them and want to be part of the solution in this load-growth, high-cost environment.”

The expanded Voltus portfolio is already delivering results for the grid, its customers, and the climate. So far this year, Voltus has been dispatched nearly 99% of all days, achieving 125,000 metric tons in net avoided emissions.
