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.

Spaulding Injury Law Offers Insights on Whether Families of Victims Can Sue Oceangate?

Atlanta, GA – According to Spaulding Injury Law, if wrongful death lawsuits are pursued, they will likely scrutinize the design and maintenance of the submersible, and Oceangate’s alleged negligence in both aspects.

Atlanta, Georgia – Spaulding Injury Law is closely monitoring the legal implications following the incident involving Oceangate, as families may explore pursuing compensation through wrongful death lawsuits. In light of the circumstances, personal injury claims, specifically wrongful death lawsuits, are potential legal routes for these families.

According to Spaulding Injury Law, if wrongful death lawsuits are pursued, they will likely scrutinize the design and maintenance of the submersible, and Oceangate’s alleged negligence in both aspects. Additionally, other third parties involved in the design, maintenance, or operation could potentially face civil lawsuits.

The crux of the matter, both in civil and criminal proceedings, hinges on the level of knowledge Oceangate possessed in advance. The risks associated with the design of the submersible and the extent to which the CEO and other personnel were aware of these risks will be crucial factors in determining liability. To date, criminal charges have not been filed against Oceangate or those involved in the manufacturing of the submersible.

Waivers signed by passengers may serve as a line of defense for Oceangate. The language in these waivers explicitly mentions the inherent risk of injury, disability, emotional trauma, or even death. However, the unique circumstances of this case make these waivers a complex legal issue. If legal action ensues, the enforceability of the waivers, influenced by the jurisdiction in which the case is filed, will be a contentious point.

Waivers are not uncommon in personal injury cases, but the unique circumstances surrounding this incident make it a more complex legal matter. If a lawsuit is filed, the enforceability of the waivers will likely be hotly debated. Additionally, the jurisdiction in which the case is brought will play a significant role in determining the outcome. With Washington State, the Bahamas (due to the LLC’s financial holdings), Canada and other maritime jurisdictions being potentially relevant jurisdictions, the legal landscape becomes multifaceted.

Spaulding Injury Law notes an interesting facet related to the waivers: the potential for fraud. Some reports suggest that Oceangate circumvented regulatory control by designating its operations as exploratory, with paying passengers classified as crew members. If deemed fraudulent, such actions could invalidate the waivers.

Finally, the concept of gross negligence will be pertinent in this case. If it is established that Oceangate exhibited gross negligence regarding the design or operation of the submersible, the waivers may be rendered void.

While it seems probable that affected families may pursue legal action against Oceangate, the outcome will depend on multiple factors. As the families seek justice, they will need to navigate these legal complexities, underscoring the importance of experienced and dedicated legal counsel.
