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.

Personal Flotation Devices For Kayaking: Fishing & Sea PFDs Guide Launched

Kayaking Nation, an online information hub for all things kayaking, has published a new guide on how to select a personal flotation device for optimal safety.

In its new guide, Kayaking Nation addresses the importance of personal flotation devices (PFDs) for ensuring safety during kayaking activities. Providing information on the different types of PFD available and how they suit individual needs, Kayaking Nation helps readers make more informed decisions.

According to a 2021 study by Kayak Scout, there were 154 deaths relating to canoeing/kayaking accidents in this year alone. With accidents on the rise, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) now certifies and regulates all PFDs to ensure their effectiveness in various activities, including kayaking.

Kayaking Nation helps individuals understand the different types of PFDs on offer and what to look for to ensure USCG certification.

As explained in the guide, kayakers should opt for a Type III or V PFD as these have been designed specifically with kayaking in mind. “Designed for comfort and freedom of movement during water activities like kayaking, these PFDs have less buoyancy than Type II but offer the same likelihood of turning an unconscious wearer face-up,” says Kayaking Nation.

With safety and comfort at the forefront, kayakers should ensure they select the correct size PFD by measuring their chest circumference. The flotation device should fit snugly without restricting movement, states the guide. With a range of styles to choose from, including front-zip, side-zip and over-the-head types, kayakers can select the best option to suit their body shape and mobility.

Kayaking Nation advises readers to opt for a PFD with adjustable straps to ensure a secure fit and recommends testing its movability before entering the water. Bright colors are recommended for visibility in an emergency, as well as rescue features such as whistles, strobe attachments and rescue tethers.

The guide explains how different PFDs cater to different kayaking activities, advising readers to choose their device based on the intended use. For example, fishing PFDs will require ample storage whereas sea kayaking PFDs will need to be durable and reflective for increased visibility in open water.

Kayaking Nation also provides tips for the care and maintenance of PFDs, from cleaning and storage to inspection and replacement. A spokesperson for the company said: “Timely replacement of any damaged equipment is essential for maintaining the highest level of safety. If your PFD shows signs of wear or damage, or if it no longer provides adequate buoyancy, it is time to invest in a new one. Regular care and maintenance, combined with vigilant inspections, will ensure that your PFD remains reliable and effective during your kayaking adventures.”
