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.

Cabling Installation & Maintenance is published by Endeavor Business Media, a division of EndeavorB2B.

VAGA Helps People Suffering with Poor Mental Health or Cognitive Decline Through Art Therapy

By: Magic PR

Mental health is a topic that has been under the spotlight in recent years, as people are realising that it is just as important as physical health and are more open to talking about it. However, there is still more work to be done to tackle mental health issues around the globe.

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) says that tens of millions of people each year are affected by mental health conditions in the United States alone, yet only about half of these people receive treatment. Furthermore, a solid cure for cognitive decline has unfortunately remained undiscovered. However, there is some hope, as research has shown that a lot of suffering that comes with mental illness can be alleviated through art.

VAGA is an organization that is dedicated to improving the lives of those suffering from mental health issues or cognitive decline through art therapy. VAGA’s mission is to connect artists, clinical psychologists, healthcare professionals, and academics to form a strong community that’s passionate about conducting collaborative research into art therapy and developing effective new art therapy programmes.

Why art therapy?

Modern art therapy has been around for decades: in the US, Margaret Naumburg coined the term ‘dynamically oriented art therapy’ in 1943; in the UK, references to ‘art therapy’ can be found as far back as the 1930s. In fact, art in general has been integral to human development, emotions, and culture – as evidenced from prehistoric cave paintings right up until today’s extensive variety of artistic works.

Scientific studies have found that there is a direct link between artistic expression and cognitive health. Art can influence the neurochemical state of our brains in a number of positive ways over time, strengthening synapses and neurotransmitters, and increasing neuron density. By engaging in art therapy, we can learn to better express ourselves, often exploring inner traumas and complex emotions that are otherwise stuck inside with no way to escape. Art therapy programmes, like those offered through VAGA, can help patients to overcome a wide range of mental health problems, including:

  • Addiction
  • ADHD
  • Anxiety
  • Borderline personality disorder (BPD)
  • Cognitive decline
  • Depression
  • OCD
  • Schizophrenia

Ultimately, by creating pieces of art, we can help to slow cognitive decline and bolster our mental health.

How VAGA is helping

Vagarights.com has two main aims: to expand on research into art therapy as a treatment for mental health issues, and to help healthcare professionals apply research findings in a practical setting. These aims are focused around one ultimate goal: to help people overcome mental health issues through art.

Mental health issues can be overwhelming, impacting everything from education to work to personal relationships and making daily life hard for sufferers. However, VAGA believes that art therapy has the power to transform these lives for the better, giving people the freedom to tackle daily life and overcome obstacles without being burdened by their mental health issues.

VAGA facilitates and instigates collaborative work between psychologists, healthcare professionals, artists and academics, creating the perfect setting to explore the relationships between human cognition, emotions, and artistic creation. These findings can then easily be developed and shared in order to create the most positive impact and benefit the most people. A lot of this research is used to create VAGA’s innovative art therapy programmes, which have helped countless patients to date.
