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.

AUSTIN, TX – July 16, 2025 – Communication Service for the Deaf (CSD) is thrilled to announce the hire of Elizabeth Stone as its new Chief Administrative Officer (CAO), to support CSD’s mission of uplifting the Deaf community and advancing accessibility for all its members.

Elizabeth brings more than 25 years of experience in conflict resolution, strategic leadership, and organizational development across higher education, nonprofits, and public service. Most recently, she served as a Program Management Specialist and Ombuds at the U.S. Department of State, helping programs navigate complex challenges through practical strategy and collaboration. She holds a Master of Public Administration from American University, a Certificate in Mediating Disputes from Harvard Law School, and a Bachelor of Social Work from the Rochester Institute of Technology.

Before her time in public service, Elizabeth spent nearly a decade as University Ombuds and Director of Ombuds Programs at Gallaudet University, providing confidential and independent conflict resolution support to students, faculty, staff, and senior leaders. She is also a certified mediator and restorative justice facilitator, trained through Harvard Law School’s Program on Negotiation and the University of San Diego.

“At all of the organizations I’ve been a part of, I’ve worked to seamlessly integrate people and systems for success,” Elizabeth said. “I look forward to infusing this same approach in my work as I continue to support and elevate the mission of CSD.”

Her background also includes leading major federal initiatives at the Clerc Center under the Education of the Deaf Act, securing funding for scholarships and research at Gallaudet University, and delivering nationwide technical assistance for agencies supporting Deaf survivors of violence at the Vera Institute of Justice.
