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.

Comcast Announces Plans to Open Two New Xfinity Stores in the Twin Cities

Company officially opens Richfield location, Chanhassen store also planned for 2025

ST. PAUL, Minn. – July 10, 2025 – Today, Comcast announced plans to open two new Xfinity stores in the Twin Cities by the end of 2025. The investment will place new retail stores in Richfield and Chanhassen. The Xfinity store in Richfield officially opened today with the Chanhassen store planned to open later this year.

Located at 1704 E. 66th Street, the new Richfield store features an interactive design and provides a destination for visitors to experience Xfinity’s full suite of products, including internet, video, mobile, voice and home security. The new location is open Monday through Saturday 10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. and Sunday 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.

“We are thrilled to welcome Comcast to Richfield as the location of their newest Xfinity store,” said Mary Supple, mayor of Richfield. “The store represents more than just a retail space—it’s an investment in our community, bringing jobs and the latest innovative technologies closer to home. We look forward to the positive impact Comcast will have in our city while helping residents stay connected.”

With the addition of the new stores, Comcast will offer 17 convenient Xfinity retail locations in the Twin Cities by year’s end. At these locations, customers can receive personalized support, exchange and upgrade equipment, pay their bill and more. Customers can also learn about the new five-year price guarantee or add an unlimited Xfinity Mobile line at no cost for a year when signing up for a new Xfinity Internet package.

For local businesses interested in the latest in connectivity, voice solutions and cybersecurity, the stores will offer expertise from Comcast Business to discuss their business needs. The stores are also equipped to host live demos and provide hands-on account management services, and customers can conveniently book appointments online ahead of time through Xfinity’s website.

 “We are doubling down on our commitment to bring Xfinity closer to the communities we serve,” said Rachel Johnson, vice president, Sales and Marketing, Comcast Midwest. “Opening this state-of-the-art store in Richfield is part of our broader strategy to enhance and personalize the customer experience, especially as we near completion of our Chanhassen network expansion. We’re proud to serve our new customers with the latest technology, top-notch technical support, and the highest-quality customer service to connect residents to what matters most.”

Comcast has further invested in the Richfield community by donating $2,500 to VEAP, part of the company’s ongoing commitment to support the areas where they operate.

The new Xfinity Stores are a testament to Comcast's ongoing investment in Minnesota. Over the past three years, Comcast has invested more than $534 million in technology and infrastructure across the state, including upgrades to its network and new construction.
