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.

Hospice Choices: VITAS® Healthcare Expands in Austin, Texas

AUSTIN, Texas, April 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Responding to the growing demand for high-quality hospice care in Central Texas, VITAS Healthcare has expanded its reach in the Austin area by opening a new administrative office in Pflugerville. With the addition of this North Austin location, VITAS now serves the entire metro area and surrounding counties, bringing greater access to compassionate, expert end-of-life care for patients and their families.

A trusted national hospice provider with a 45-year history, VITAS has served South Austin since 2022. The Pflugerville expansion enhances service accessibility across the region and creates new job opportunities for healthcare professionals in Travis and Williamson counties.

“Texans have relied on VITAS for more than four decades, and we’re proud to strengthen our presence in Austin to serve even more families,” said Joseph Brickner, vice president of operations. “This second homebase location for our care teams helps ensure that patients, families and healthcare partners in northern communities have seamless access to the specialized support they need at the end of life.”

Grand opening celebrations for the Kyle and Pflugerville offices are scheduled for late June.

VITAS hospice care is delivered wherever a patient calls home—including private residences, nursing homes, assisted living communities and inpatient settings such as the VITAS Inpatient Unit at Villa Rosa. Each patient is supported by a full-service interdisciplinary care team that includes:

  • Physicians, nurses and hospice aides for skilled medical care and symptom management
  • Social workers and chaplains offering emotional and spiritual support
  • Trained volunteers providing companionship and additional assistance
  • Bereavement specialists supporting families through loss and grief

As part of its continued investment in Central Texas, VITAS is hiring compassionate professionals for clinical and non-clinical roles, including registered nurses, hospice aides/CNAs, social workers, patient care secretaries, chaplains and community representatives. With a reputation for stability, support and personal growth, VITAS is proud to be a best-in-class employer for those called to care.

VITAS provides specialized support and training for clinicians to enhance end-of-life care expertise. Physicians, nurses and case managers can download the VITAS mobile referral app for quick access to hospice eligibility guidelines, seamless referral tools, educational resources and more. The company also offers free monthly continuing education webinars for CE/CEUs credit for the medical community.

With locations in North and South Austin, VITAS now proudly serves patients throughout Bastrop, Blanco, Burnet, Caldwell, Fayette, Gillespie, Hays, Travis and Williamson counties.
