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.

Baxter the Brave Mouse Unites Baxterville Against the Cat Pack

Charleston, SC, July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In The Adventures of Baxter: The Cat Pack Attack, readers are introduced to Baxter, a spirited young mouse living in a luxury toaster, who thrives on adventure and creativity. Baxter, along with his loyal friend Henry, prepares for the Annual Baxterville Cheese-Off, an event that brings excitement and joy to their peaceful backyard community. However, a dark omen looms when Mella, the friendly dog, shares a troubling dream about the Cat Pack, a trio of mischievous cats from the neighboring Drearyville. Led by Razor and Tazer, with the kind-hearted Phil, they plot to disrupt the Cheese-Off and steal the coveted Gouda cheese wheel.

As the festivities commence, the Cat Pack's antics frighten the animals, allowing them to snatch the cheese right from Baxter's grasp. Undeterred, Baxter rallies his friends to devise a plan to reclaim their stolen treasure. A thrilling confrontation unfolds in Drearyville, where Baxter and his small crew cleverly outmaneuver the larger cats to retrieve the cheese.

Baxter soon discovers that the Cat Pack's mean behavior stems from their own unhappiness and lack of love. Opting for compassion over revenge, he forgives them and invites them to join the Cheese-Off. Initially met with skepticism, the cats demonstrate their transformation by serving cheese to the animals of Baxterville. Through this heartwarming journey, they learn the importance of kindness and friendship, evolving from bullies into cherished members of the community. Ike Birdsall's enchanting tale showcases the magic of understanding and acceptance, reminding readers that even the meanest hearts can change when shown love.

The Adventures of Baxter: The Cat Pack Attack is available for purchase online at Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com.
