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.

Christensen Law Publishes Analysis on the Dangers of Distracted Driving and Explores the Effectiveness of Current Laws in Michigan

-- Christensen Law, a multi-award-winning personal injury law firm, is happy to announce the release of its new analysis on the dangers of distracted driving, the effectiveness of current laws, and Michigan’s unique success in maintaining stable fatality rates compared to rising trends nationwide.

From highlighting the latest national statistics and comparing fines for distracted drivers across several states to examining the legal framework that has led Michigan to counter the universal trend, Christensen Law’s new in-depth analysis provides critical observations on the impact of distracted driving in the US, with the hope of lowering incidents in the future.

Some key figures and insights from the article include:

  • In 2021, NHTSA (The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) estimates that 3,522 people were killed in crashes involving distracted drivers – about 8% of all U.S. traffic fatalities that year. This indicates that despite increased distracted driving laws in the United States and public education efforts, driver inattentiveness was still a leading cause of crashes.
  • While 2022 saw a decrease in fatalities (3,308), the five-year trend indicates distracted driving fatalities have not returned to earlier lows, suggesting the problem has worsened overall compared to five years ago​.
  • States like Oregon and Louisiana impose some of the highest fines and additional penalties, including potential jail time or license suspension. Wisconsin has the most lenient penalties, with fines as low as $20 and no escalating structure for multiple offenses. Michigan’s penalties align with a moderate deterrence model, balancing escalating fines with educational intervention (driver improvement course).
  • Michigan’s distracted driving fatalities did not follow the national pattern observed over the past five years. While many states experienced a significant increase in distracted driving-related deaths, particularly during the pandemic years (2020–2021), Michigan saw a relative decline or stabilization.
  • The combination of high-visibility campaigns in Michigan, such as “U Drive. U Text. U Pay,” public education efforts targeting distracted driving, and aggressive ticketing by law enforcement has kept the state’s distracted driving fatality rates from rising to the levels seen in more lenient or less proactive states.

“As lawyers and advocates, we also have a crucial role in preventing distracted driving—not just by representing victims after crashes happen, but by actively working to reduce them in the first place,” said a spokesperson for Christensen Law. “Through community outreach, legal blogs, and media interviews, we can spread awareness about the risks and the legal liabilities, making it clear that this isn’t just a bad habit—it’s a serious offense that more often than not ends in lawsuits, criminal charges, and life-altering consequences.”
