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.

World-renowned healthcare system joins world’s first and world’s best pickleball tour to support its mission of providing children unparalleled, patient-centered specialty care

 

 

 

CHICAGO (August 28, 2025) -- The Association of Pickleball Players (APP) has announced a multi-year partnership with Shriners Children’s, a leader in pediatric specialty medical care, as the official charity partner of the APP. Shriners Children’s and the APP will launch several co-branded community initiatives surrounding the partnership, all in support of funds and awareness for Shriners Children’s, and to support the growth of pickleball across the United States.

“We are honored to partner with such a remarkable leader in Shriners Children’s, whose values are near and dear to our hearts,” said APP Founder Ken Herrmann. “We are proud to support them and equally grateful for their support of the APP. We look forward to making a powerful impact on many lives together, through pickleball, for many years to come.”

“Partnering with the Association of Pickleball Players gives our healthcare system an exciting new platform to share our mission with sports fans and pickleball enthusiasts around the United States,” said Dr. Leslie D. Stewart, Chairman of the Board of Trustees for Shriners Children’s. “Shriners Children's experienced and innovative medical teams provide hope and healing for children around the world. Aligning with the Association of Pickleball Players will help us reach the next generation of supporters and improve the lives of more children in more places.”

Highlighting the partnership will be a series of co-branded pickleball fundraising events held at local pickleball clubs across the country, with Shriners Children’s as the primary beneficiary.

The APP event calendar each year will include a nationally televised annual APP Shriners Children’s Pro Invitational tournament, featuring top APP Tour pro players. Shriners Children’s and the APP also will collaborate to host corporate pickleball challenges, fitness-based “virtual” fundraising challenges, clinics, donor events and more. Every dollar raised will support Shriners Children's mission to provide children the best possible care in the areas of orthopedics, burns, cleft lip and palate and spinal cord injury rehabilitation, regardless of the family’s ability to pay or insurance status.

As official charity partner of the APP Tour, Shriners Children’s branding will be fully immersed in digital and on-site activations at each tour stop, including signage and broadcast integrations.

Shriners Children’s is already active in pickleball, with a dedicated event fundraising page live now on its website. Those interested in arranging pickleball events to help raise funds for Shriners Children’s can go to this link to sign up.
