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.

Former U.S. Senator Roy Blunt Joins ACRD Advisory Board

ACRD

Washington DC, District of Columbia – Association of Advocates, Counselors and Representatives for the Disabled (ACRD) is proud to welcome former U.S. Senator Roy Blunt to its Advisory Board, adding one of the nation’s most respected bipartisan leaders in healthcare and disability rights to its mission of strengthening professional education and advocacy for disability professionals. With a career spanning over 25 years in Congress, Senator Blunt played a pivotal role in shaping groundbreaking legislation that has transformed access to healthcare, disability resources, and mental health services nationwide.

Throughout his tenure in the U.S. Senate (2011–2023) and House of Representatives (1997–2011), Senator Blunt was a champion for bipartisan solutions, successfully bridging political divides to pass legislation that directly improved the lives of individuals with disabilities. His leadership helped enact the Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) Act, empowering people with disabilities to build financial security without jeopardizing critical benefits, and the Excellence in Mental Health Act, a landmark initiative expanding Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs) to ensure round-the-clock access to mental health and addiction treatment services.

“Senator Blunt has been a driving force in reshaping national policies to prioritize accessibility, equity, and inclusion for individuals with disabilities,” said Rachel Buck, Executive Director of ACRD. “His leadership resulted in historic investments in healthcare, mental health services, and disability savings programs. We’re honored to have him join our Advisory Board, where his expertise will be instrumental in shaping our initiatives to advance disability representation and professional training.”

Blunt’s legislative impact extends beyond individual policies—he led the charge to increase funding for medical research, securing a historic 58% boost for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) over eight years, directly fueling advancements in disability-related conditions such as Alzheimer’s, autism, and rare diseases. His leadership also enhanced federal disability employment programs and vocational training, ensuring greater access to career opportunities for individuals with disabilities.

A staunch advocate for equal access in democracy, Senator Blunt co-sponsored bipartisan legislation to expand voting rights for people with disabilities, reinforcing the fundamental right to civic participation for all Americans. His approach to policymaking, rooted in pragmatism, consensus-building, and real-world impact, has made him one of the most effective and respected legislators in the disability rights and healthcare sectors.

Blunt’s appointment reaffirms ACRD’s commitment to bipartisan leadership and its dedication to advancing disability rights through education, training, and professional advocacy. This addition to the Advisory Board follows the recent appointment of former Senator Debbie Stabenow, strengthening ACRD’s ability to drive meaningful change through diverse, bipartisan leadership.

As an Advisory Board member, Senator Blunt will provide strategic insight, engage with national policymakers, and help shape initiatives that support disability professionals across the country. ACRD looks forward to working alongside him to build a more inclusive, accessible, and impactful future for individuals with disabilities and the professionals who serve them.

ACRD is a premier organization dedicated to supporting professionals in the disability field through networking opportunities, continuing legal education (CLE) courses, and industry-leading resources that empower professionals to serve their clients effectively.



Advocates, Counselors, and Representatives for the Disabled (ACRD) is dedicated to empowering and educating disability representatives by providing comprehensive training, leadership development, technology insights, and networking opportunities.
