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.

Avista files 2025 Natural Gas Integrated Resource Plan

SPOKANE, Wash., March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Avista has filed its 2025 Natural Gas Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) with state regulators in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon. This plan outlines a preferred resource portfolio which is designed to meet the forecast for system energy demand and comply with emissions legislation over the next twenty years.

Submitted biennially to public utility commissions in all three states, the IRP is a thoroughly researched, data-driven document that projects future energy needs and identifies the most effective strategies for reliably meeting those needs. The development of the IRP included Avista's professional energy analysis and contributions from a Technical Advisory Committee, which includes public utility commission staff, peer natural gas utilities, customers, and other stakeholders.

“This planning effort is a crucial element to ensuring Avista continues to deliver safe, reliable natural gas service to our customers,” said Scott Kinney, Avista’s Vice President of Energy Resources & Integrated Planning. “What we have created is a comprehensive plan that addresses the resources available to us to meet our customers’ natural gas needs. It also outlines our approach to meeting emissions compliance requirement in Washington and Oregon.”

Oregon’s Climate Protection Program and Washington’s Climate Commitment Act mandates that Avista meets specific emissions requirements, which are reflected in the preferred resource portfolio for each state. The IRP demonstrates that Avista can meet expected state loads.

The utility commissions will now review the IRP and provide an opportunity for public comment. The IRP is available for review at www.myavista.com/irp.
