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.

Where Do Philanthropists Get Expert Advice? Inside the $17 Trillion Philanthropy Advising Market

Washington, DC, Aug. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As foreign aid cuts leave key humanitarian and development efforts underfunded, wealthy donors are being called upon to meet the critical needs of communities around the world. A new paper by Geneva Global and the Gates Foundation reveals the influential network of advisors helping these donors make giving decisions. 

Charting the Constellation of Advisors: Where Do Philanthropists Get Expert Advice? offers a typology of the individuals and firms guiding high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth philanthropy (U/HNW). In the U.S. alone, these donors hold a collective net worth of $17.15 trillion and account for 44% of global UHNW giving.  

The Chronicle of Philanthropy recently compared philanthropy advising to the “Wild West.” As the field evolves, there hasn’t been a simple way to describe the many professionals who support ultra-high-net-worth giving—until now.  

“This research brings clarity to a confusing space,” said Nathaniel Heller, Executive Vice President at Geneva Global and Global Impact Ventures. "Until now, no one had fully mapped this ecosystem. We hope this paper shines a light on the actors and advisors helping donors navigate their philanthropic journey.” 

Geneva Global collaborated with the Gates Foundation’s Philanthropic Partnerships team on the research to develop the paper’s unique typology. The typology is grounded in original research, deploying quantitative and qualitative methods and interviewing influential advisors across the philanthropic landscape. The result is a framework that captures the diversity of advisors—who they are, what they do, and how they influence giving.  

Today’s donors have access to more tools than ever, including donor-advised funds (DAFs), charitable LLCs, and impact investing platforms. By mapping the advisors who help donors set strategy and select tools, this research offers a new lens for understanding how philanthropic decisions are made. 

Donors often feel overwhelmed by choices in this increasingly complex environment. This paper shows how philanthropy advisors play a critical role in helping donors clarify their mission and vision, identify the most aligned giving mechanisms, and chart a meaningful philanthropic legacy.
