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.

The day began with an intimate tea ceremony hosted by Minty Zou, where guests were guided through the intricate practices of Gongfu-style brewing. Attendees learned the history and artistry of this ancient ritual while sampling carefully sourced teas.

As the festival unfolded, the energy shifted into a lively workshop where participants shaped, folded, and filled handmade dumplings. The class, led by Alex Falco, gave festival-goers of all ages the chance to immerse themselves in Chinese culinary craft. For many, this hands-on experience became a festival highlight, with guests gathering around shared tables to enjoy their own creations while connecting with others.

The evening concluded with a soulful performance by Pattie Lin and Friends. Guests filled the lounge and patio, savoring small plates and cocktails while listening to intimate acoustic music that reflected the friendly, neighborhood atmosphere of Echo Park Rising. The blend of food, tea, and live music perfectly mirrored the event’s mission of bringing people together through creativity and culture.

Echo Park Rising, first launched in 2011, has grown into one of Los Angeles’ most anticipated annual gatherings. Each year, it brings thousands into the neighborhood for music, food, and art, while businesses like Men and Beasts play an integral role in shaping the festival’s identity as a community-driven celebration.

For Men and Beasts, the festival was more than an opportunity to showcase inventive Chinese Food that Echo Park has come to love. It was a chance to express the restaurant’s core philosophy: that food is not just about taste but about connection, storytelling, and experience. From handcrafted dumplings to artisanal teas, the restaurant’s menu honors the foundations of Chinese cuisine while weaving in bold, modern flavors that resonate with Los Angeles diners.
