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.

Apptronik Dominates Industry Awards, winning Fast Company’s 2025 “Innovation by Design” Award after being named to the 2025 CNBC Disruptor 50 and Automotive News All-Stars Lists

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AI-powered robotics company Apptronik® today announced that Apollo™, its flagship humanoid robot, is the winner of a trifecta of prestigious industry awards. Apptronik won Fast Company’s 2025 Innovation by Design Award in the Artificial Intelligence Design category following wins from CNBC in June and Automotive News in August.

At its core, Apptronik is dedicated to empowering people and transforming the way we work by creating robots that are friendly, collaborative, and easy to work with. The company has gained repeated recognition for its innovative approach to humanoid robot design and Apollo’s transformative potential for commercial impact.

The annual Fast Company Innovation by Design awards honor the businesses addressing society’s most urgent challenges through design while anticipating the problems of tomorrow. Earlier this year, Apptronik was named #33 on CNBC’s 2025 Disruptor 50 List, which recognizes the world’s 50 most innovative and fast-growing private companies that are transforming industries and the economy, based on a rigorous evaluation of quantitative and qualitative assessments, and expert reviews from advisory boards. Additionally, Apptronik CEO Jeff Cardenas was named a 2025 Automotive News All-Star in the Best Emerging Business Model category. The annual Automotive News All-Stars award is the automotive industry’s most prestigious recognition of exceptional leadership and innovation across the automotive landscape. The 2025 All-Stars reflect the broad array of disciplines it takes to innovate, build, and sell vehicles in a competitive global marketplace.

"We built Apptronik on the idea that robots should enhance the human experience, and help people in every facet of work and life," said Jeff Cardenas, CEO and co-founder of Apptronik. "Apollo reflects the deep expertise and bold innovation needed to create a humanoid robot that collaborates thoughtfully with people, and that people are excited to work alongside. We’re bringing the company’s founding vision to life through intentional, human-centered design, and we’re so honored to be recognized by influential leaders like Fast Company, CNBC, and Automotive News."

Apollo is already positively impacting businesses in manufacturing and logistics, with future applications in retail, healthcare, and the home. Apptronik has established landmark commercial partnerships with some of the world’s most well-known companies including Mercedes-Benz, GXO Logistics, and Jabil. Apptronik has also partnered with Google DeepMind to build the next generation of humanoid robots, powered by Gemini Robotics.
