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.

New Report Reveals Sharp Increase in Infant and Toddler Homelessness Nationwide

--News Direct--

A new report from national nonprofit SchoolHouse Connection reveals that an estimated 446,996 infants and toddlers—ages birth through three—experienced homelessness during the 2022–2023 program year. This marks a staggering 23% increase in just two years.

The report, Infant and Toddler Homelessness Across 50 States: 2022–2023, produced in partnership with Poverty Solutions at the University of Michigan, is the only 50-state analysis of homelessness among our nation’s youngest children. It presents the latest state-level estimates of infant and toddler homelessness, early childhood enrollment data, and urgent recommendations for policymakers, agencies, and service providers across sectors—including early childhood, housing, and homelessness systems.

“A child’s brain develops faster from birth through age three than at any other time in life. Homelessness during these years can do lasting harm,” said Barbara Duffield, Executive Director of SchoolHouse Connection. “We must confront this growing crisis with the urgency it demands. That means rejecting harmful cuts to programs that prevent and address infant and toddler homelessness, and taking immediate practical actions to ensure that every baby has the chance to thrive from the start.”

Despite their vulnerability, the report finds that only 10% of infants and toddlers experiencing homelessness were served by an early childhood development program—down from 11.5% two years ago. In 16 states, the number of children reached by early childhood programs declined, even as homelessness increased.

"Homelessness among infants and toddlers is increasing at a time when access to early childhood and housing services is decreasing," said Erin Patterson, Senior Director of Strategic Initiatives and Partnerships of SchoolHouse Connection. "We have to use this data to center the needs of babies in order to disrupt the cycle of homelessness."

The report also highlights state and local innovations that are working to identify and serve young children experiencing homelessness and urges replication and scale.

The report concludes with concrete policy recommendations for Congress, federal and state agencies, and local providers, emphasizing cross-sector coordination and increased investment in both early childhood programs and housing solutions.
