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.

Norsk Hydro: Hydro cuts costs and carries out strategic workforce adjustment

To strengthen its long-term resilience, Hydro has decided to initiate a process aiming to cut annual costs by NOK 1 billion, including reducing the overall workforce by 750 positions.

Hydro is implementing measures to cut annual costs and align its organizational structure in accordance with strategic goals and changing business requirements. When completed, these measures, including reducing the overall workforce and initiatives to reduce travel costs and consultancy costs, are expected to provide an annual cost reduction of NOK 1 billion.

This measure comes in addition to the already communicated improvement program and reduction in the capex estimate for 2025 from NOK 15 billion to NOK 13.5 billion.

"By taking this step now, rather than later, we strengthen Hydro’s resilience and position ourselves to compete and succeed in a world where geopolitical unpredictability accelerates volatility and creates new risks," says President and CEO Eivind Kallevik.

Following the temporary hiring freeze implemented in June and the project to evaluate the number of white collar positions across the company, Hydro has decided to reduce the number of white collar employees by approximately 750 positions.

This workforce adjustment process will begin immediately and result in a reduction of 600 FTEs by year end 2025, with an additional 150 to be identified through efficiency initiatives from 2026 onwards. 

Hydro remains firmly committed to conducting this transition with transparency and care, ensuring close collaboration with employee representatives throughout the process. The company’s approach will be guided by its values of care, courage and collaboration.

The workforce adjustment affects white collar roles, like staff and support functions, engineering, commercial, supply chain, and IT across group functions, Business Areas, and Global Business Services. Blue collar positions, like production, maintenance and press operators within the Business Areas, are not affected by this process.

By implementing these measures, Hydro aims to further enhance its ability to navigate uncertainty and continue delivering long-term value to customers, employees, and stakeholders.
