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.

Goosehead Insurance Launches New Program to Support Veterans on Path to Business Ownership

WESTLAKE, Texas, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Goosehead Insurance, Inc., (NASDAQ: GSHD), a rapidly growing, independent personal lines insurance agency, today launched the Veteran Initiative Program (VIP), designed to support and recruit military veterans on their path to become business owners. The program empowers veterans to apply their unique skills from active duty through professional development, mentorship and real-world learning to build thriving Goosehead franchises and achieve lasting financial independence.

According to the International Franchise Association, 14% of franchisees are veterans and they are more likely to hire other veteran employees with similar backgrounds and work ethic. Goosehead Insurance’s VIP provides driven, former service members with a unique pathway to entrepreneurship in the growing and resilient insurance industry. Through the program, the company equips veterans, regardless of prior insurance experience, with the comprehensive support and training needed to operate a successful franchise:

  • Comprehensive Business Training and Ongoing Support: Mirroring the structured coaching and leadership veterans experienced during their service, ensuring they are set up for long-term success.
  • Access to Industry-Leading Technology: Simplifying sales and marketing efforts by identifying target markets and streamlining the process of matching clients with the best insurance products.
  • A Dedicated Veteran Development Team: Providing specialized guidance and mentorship throughout their journey as franchise owners.
  • Geographic Flexibility: Allowing veterans to establish their franchises in locations that suit their personal and professional goals, with opportunities available in up to 39 states.
  • A 20% Discount on the Initial Franchise Fee: Demonstrating Goosehead Insurance’s commitment to making franchise ownership more accessible to veterans.

“After 23 years in the military, I’ve seen that veterans bring a unique mindset and valuable skills honed in high pressure situations, such as leadership, discipline, grit and a strong work ethic - all critical to building a successful business,” said Ben Walker, Sr. Manager of the Veteran Initiative Program at Goosehead Insurance. “We have 40+ operating veteran-owned franchises nationwide, and the Veteran Initiative Program demonstrates Goosehead’s growing commitment to giving even more veterans a seat at the table.”

“The Veteran Initiative Program showcases our commitment to real-world learning, professional development and fostering success across our franchise network. We are excited to bring more veterans into our proven franchise model and give them a competitive edge toward financial independence,” added Walker.

The program was inspired by the success of veteran franchisees like Tim McMullin, whose agency in Pennsylvania recently achieved a $10 million book of business.

“At Goosehead Insurance, I've been able to achieve remarkable results by leaning into my strengths and channeling skillsets acquired during my military service,” said McMullin. “Now, as a successful franchise owner, I can also help others along their journey - something I'm both eager to do and proud to say I can, thanks to Goosehead.”
