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.

BTCS Highlights Ethereum's Successful Pectra Upgrade

By: Newsfile

Silver Spring, Maryland--(Newsfile Corp. - May 8, 2025) -  BTCS Inc. (NASDAQ: BTCS) ("BTCS" or the "Company"), a U.S.-based blockchain infrastructure technology company, today highlighted the successful implementation of the Ethereum network upgrade, Pectra, which went live yesterday May 7, 2025. As part of its ongoing commitment to Ethereum infrastructure, BTCS views Pectra as a key milestone in Ethereum's continued evolution and a strong example of its resilience and user-focused innovation.

The Pectra upgrade, delivered several impactful improvements aimed at enhancing validator performance and enhancing user functionality. Key features of the upgrade included:

Scaling Validator Staking

Increased the maximum effective stake per validator from 32 ETH to 2,048 ETH, addressing operational inefficiencies for large stakers. This will allow BTCS to consolidate validators and simplify operations, thus reducing infrastructure complexity and lowering costs without impacting staking revenue, which aligns with BTCS's strategy of efficient, scalable Ethereum infrastructure.

Advancing Wallet Functionality

Transforms Externally Owned Accounts by temporarily allowing them to behave like smart contracts. This unique feature will unlock:

  • Flexible fee payments, such as using stablecoins like USDC instead of ETH.
  • Automated transaction capabilities, including recurring and subscription-based payments.
  • Simplified wallet recovery, reducing reliance on complex seed phrases.

"Pectra is a technical milestone that demonstrates Ethereum's commitment to improving scalability and usability for both validators and users," said Charles Allen, CEO of BTCS. "Consistent upgrades to Ethereum's blockchain validate our long-term strategy of holding ETH and generating revenue through operating validator nodes and block building, critical components of Ethereum's infrastructure.

With the Pectra upgrade now live, BTCS plans to move forward with the rollout of its Staker Protection Plan ("SPP") - an initiative designed to improve transaction inclusion, enhance staking efficiency, and support regulatory compliance. As part of this effort, BTCS recently partnered with Figment and WonderFi Technologies Inc. (TSX: WNDR) (OTCQB: WONDF) ("WonderFi") to bring the plan to market. The SPP is intended to meet the needs of today's dynamic staking environment, providing a more predictable and secure experience for validators.
