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.

Trex Introduces New All-In-One Railing Post Kits

WINCHESTER, Va., Aug. 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Living up to its tagline of engineering what’s next in outdoor living, Trex Company [NYSE: TREX], the world’s largest manufacturer of high-performance, low-maintenance composite decking and railing, and a leading brand of outdoor living products, has introduced All-In-One Post Kits for its Trex Select® and Trex Enhance® railing. Designed to simplify the railing purchase and installation process, these budget-friendly kits come complete with a composite post sleeve, post cap and post skirt packaged together.

“Our mission is to make it as easy as possible for homeowners to have the decks of their dreams,” said Leslie Adkins, group vice president of marketing and ESG development for Trex Company. “These new railing post kits do just that by saving customers time and making the improved aesthetics and performance of Trex railing more affordable and accessible to homeowners who might otherwise choose wood or vinyl railing.”

Priced to compete with vinyl railing, the new All-In-One Post Kits come in Trex’s Classic White finish and include composite post sleeves, post caps and post skirts packaged together for easy ordering, shipping and stocking. The kits also facilitate easy installation with post sleeves that slide seamlessly over any 4-inch by 4-inch structural post to form a solid anchor. Combined with the coordinating skirt and cap, the components deliver a clean, finished rail post look.

The Enhance Kit comes in a standard 48” railing height while the Select Kit is available in 40”, 48” or 54” heights, allowing customers to use components as-is or trim as needed for a cost-effective installation. In both cases, railing kits and brackets are sold separately.

“We are pleased to be able to offer our customers a more attractive and durable alternative to vinyl and wood at a similarly appealing price point,” added Adkins. “These strategic additions to our railing portfolio underscore our dedication to providing high-performance, low-maintenance and aesthetically pleasing solutions across all budget levels.”

Like all Trex decking and railing, the new All-In-One Post Kits are easy to maintain with no painting or staining required. Proudly made in the U.S.A, the kits are backed by a 25-year Limited Residential Warranty.
