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.

Alignment Healthcare Wins Key Legal Victory: Arizona Medicare Advantage Plans Elevated to 4 Stars

ORANGE, Calif., July 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alignment Healthcare, Inc. (NASDAQ: ALHC) announced today that a federal court ruled in its favor on June 9 in a legal challenge against the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), resulting in an increase in its Arizona HMO 2025 star rating from 3.5 to 4 stars. As a result of the decision, 100% of Alignment’s Medicare Advantage members are now enrolled in plans rated 4 stars or higher.

“This decision affirms the quality of care we deliver and recognizes the importance of accuracy and fairness in the Medicare Advantage Star Ratings program,” said John Kao, founder and CEO of Alignment Healthcare. “Our Arizona members can now have even greater confidence that they are enrolled in one of the highest-quality plans available in the state.”

The Star Ratings program evaluates Medicare Advantage plans on a 5-star scale every year across several quality measures, including preventive care, chronic disease management, customer service and member satisfaction. Plans that earn 4 stars or higher qualify for bonus payments from CMS, which are reinvested to improve member benefits and services.

“We are pleased the court validated our position,” said Dawn Maroney, president of Alignment Healthcare and CEO of Alignment Health Plan. “This result allows us to deliver even more value to our members and provider partners – advancing our ability to do Medicare Advantage right.”

Alignment serves approximately 217,500 Medicare beneficiaries in five states: Arizona, California, Nevada, North Carolina and Texas. It has been recognized with a range of accolades, including earning a 4.9 out of 5-star Google rating and being named a Newsweek World’s Most Trustworthy Company 2024.
