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.

MySavings.com Unveils 2025’s Ultimate Guide to Free Birthday Rewards: Over 100 Freebies To Celebrate a Special Day

-- A leading authority on coupons, deals, and savings strategies, has released its highly anticipated 2025 guide to free birthday stuff, featuring over 100 restaurants, retailers, and brands eager to treat customers to complimentary meals, gifts, and exclusive perks. From free slices of cheesecake and gourmet burgers to luxury candles and beauty products, this year’s list proves that loyalty programs and birthday rewards are more generous than ever—turning a single day into a month-long celebration of savings.  

The guide, curated by savings expert Melissa Cid, highlights how brands across industries leverage birthday freebies to reward customer loyalty. “Birthdays are no longer just about cake and candles,” says Cid. “Companies are competing to offer the most creative, high-value perks—whether it’s a $30 Benihana meal voucher, a free Ulta Beauty product, or even a birthday phone call from SpongeBob SquarePants. For savvy consumers, these rewards can add up to hundreds of dollars in savings.”  

Food and beverage brands dominate the list, with familiar names like Starbucks, Krispy Kreme, and Denny’s leading the charge. Starbucks Rewards members, for instance, receive a free drink or food item on their birthday via the app, while Krispy Kreme rewards loyalists with a free dozen Original Glazed donuts. Denny’s ups the ante with a free Grand Slam breakfast—a $12 value—with no purchase required. Fast-food chains like Chick-fil-A and McDonald’s have also joined the trend, offering free desserts, fries, and entrees through their apps. Even upscale dining isn’t excluded: Benihana’s Chef’s Table Club members earn a $30 meal voucher, and Capital Grille Insiders enjoy a complimentary dessert.  

Beyond restaurants, beauty and retail brands are making birthdays brighter. Ulta Beauty’s Ultamate Rewards program gifts members a free full-sized product (valued at $9–$14), such as shampoo, lotion, or makeup, while Sephora’s Beauty Insiders choose from luxury mini-sets like travel-sized skincare or mascara. Yankee Candle’s Fragrance Rewards members receive a free large candle (up to $34), and e.l.f. Cosmetics delivers a free full-sized item through its Beauty Squad loyalty program. Fashion retailers like DSW and Express also pitch in, offering $5–$10 rewards for shoes, accessories, or apparel.  

Parents can leverage kid-friendly freebies like Build-A-Bear’s “Pay Your Age” deal, where a child’s age determines the price of a Birthday Treat Bear (e.g., $5 for a 5-year-old). Chuck E. Cheese’s app delivers free game tickets, and Nickelodeon’s Birthday Club arranges free phone calls from characters like SpongeBob or PAW Patrol. Seniors enjoy perks like A&W’s lifetime free root beer floats for those over 100 and discounted National Park passes for ages 62+. Even pets get in on the action: PetSmart’s Treats Program offers a $3 coupon for birthday treats, and Milk-Bone provides a printable birthday certificate for furry friends.  

The surge in birthday freebies reflects a broader shift in consumer marketing. Brands increasingly prioritize personalized rewards to foster long-term loyalty, with birthday perks acting as a cornerstone of these strategies. “Birthdays are a unique opportunity to connect emotionally with customers,” explains Cid. “A free slice of cheesecake or a $10 Ulta coupon isn’t just a gift—it’s a gesture that builds brand affinity and keeps customers coming back.”  

To maximize these offers, Cid recommends planning ahead. Many programs, such as Genghis Grill’s free birthday bowl or UNO Pizzeria’s entree coupon, require membership sign-ups at least 30 days in advance. Using a dedicated email address for promotions helps manage influxes of offers, while combining rewards—like pairing a free Cheesecake Factory dessert with a discounted entrée—stretches savings further. Consumers should also note expiration dates: Red Robin’s free burger (with a $4.99 purchase) and Baskin-Robbins’ free scoop, for example, often expire within weeks.  

The 2025 guide also underscores regional and tiered rewards. For instance, California Pizza Kitchen offers free desserts to basic rewards members but upgrades higher-tier members to free entrees. Similarly, AMC Theaters’ free large popcorn is reserved for Stub Insiders, while CMX Cinemas’ Diamond tier members receive a $20 food voucher alongside a free ticket. Such tiered systems incentivize frequent purchases, turning occasional customers into loyal patrons.  

Critics, however, caution consumers to read the fine print. Some offers, like Barefoot Wines’ free bottle (via rebate) or Lands’ End’s $50-off coupon, require purchases or long-term membership. Others, like Popeyes’ free apple pie or Subway’s cookie, are only redeemable through apps or in-store, excluding third-party delivery services. Still, the sheer variety of no-strings-attached freebies—from free $10 Macy’s rewards to complimentary Petco treats—ensures something for everyone.
