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.

OM System has announced the breakthrough M.Zuiko Digital ED 50-200mm f/2.8 IS PRO—a fully weather sealed, all-purpose super zoom and the world’s first and only lens with an effective focal length of 100-400mm (35mm equivalent) and a constant f/2.8 aperture.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

B&H Photo is sharing the latest lens from OM System, the M. Zuiko Digital ED 50-200mm f/2.8 IS PRO Lens. A fully weather sealed, all-purpose super zoom and the world’s first and only lens with an effective focal length of 100-400mm (35mm equivalent) and a constant f/2.8 aperture. Weighing only 2.37 lbs. and coming in at just over 8.8” long, this is the perfect companion to wildlife and nature photographers looking for an unrivaled, adventure-ready lens.

This new lens opens up a whole new world of handheld wildlife photography with its compact and lightweight design, but don’t let its size fool you. The 50-200mm f/2.8 IS PRO comes packed with a vast array of features that will deliver spectacularly sharp, detailed images. The inclusion of OM Systems five-axis Sync IS system means the in-lens stabilization works in conjuncture with in-body stabilization to provide up to seven stops of compensation. Fast, accurate autofocus tracks subject matter of all kinds thanks to intelligent subject detection found in OM bodies like the OM-1 Mark II. High volume shooters will appreciate that this lens supports 50 fps sequential shooting with full continuous autofocus functionality.
