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.

Hong Kong Wraps Up Valuable Participation at WEF Annual Meeting

HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 24 January 2025 - Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR), Paul Chan, wrapped up his participation at the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland (January 23) with a flurry of thematic meetings, panel discussions and high-level exchanges with global political, business and financial leaders.

As a panelist for a discussion session titled "Stemming Financial Fragmentation", Mr Chan noted that while geopolitics may subject regional and global financial markets to greater volatility, Hong Kong boasts a robust financial system and strong buffer, maintains a free and open business environment, and steadfastly upholds the linked exchange rate system.

He added that Hong Kong is actively embracing financial innovation, including the development of digital assets, with appropriate regulations in place to promote the responsible and sustainable growth.

In another thematic discussion, organised by the Giving to Amplify Earth Action launched by the WEF, the Financial Secretary noted that Hong Kong, as an international financial centre, plays to its strengths as a "super-connector" and "super value-adder" in promoting investment in climate projects. Hong Kong provides financial support for green and transition projects through its comprehensive financial services. It also seeks to facilitate co-operation among the public, private and philanthropic sectors.

In support of the city's efforts to develop trade relations with "Global South" countries, Mr Chan held bilateral discussions with the Minister of Investment of Saudi Arabia, Khalid Al-Falih, and the Minister of Finance of Egypt, Ahmed Kouchouk, and invited them to lead business delegations to Hong Kong to explore mutually beneficial co-operation opportunities.

Mr Chan also met with the President and the Chief Executive Officer of Franklin Templeton, Jenny Johnson, to discuss the business expansion plans of the international fund group in the region.

A day earlier (January 22), Mr Chan met representatives from Coinbase, a United States cryptocurrency exchange platform, to learn about the company's latest business development and exchange views on global trends and regulatory policies concerning digital assets.

Mr Chan also met with senior management from insurance provider Swiss Re, where he outlined Hong Kong's initiatives to strengthen its role as an international risk management centre, including the development of innovative products such as catastrophe bonds. He emphasised that Hong Kong would continue to encourage businesses worldwide engaged in infrastructure and investment projects to leverage the city for comprehensive risk management, adding that Hong Kong seeks to attract more domestic and international companies to establish captive insurance companies in the city.

Other bilateral meeting included those with the Minister of Finance of Qatar, Ali bin Ahmed Al-Kuwari, and the State Secretary for International Finance, Federal Department of Finance of Switzerland, Daniela Stoffel, respectively. Exchanges focused on the latest global economic and financial landscapes and ways to enhance co-operation between Hong Kong and both economies in trade, financial services and infrastructure.

He added that Hong Kong valued its participation in the WEF Annual Meeting, which provides an opportunity to showcase the city's unique advantages under the "one country, two systems" principle and better understand international trends, exchange views with various economic and sectoral representatives, and present Hong Kong's perspectives.
