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.

Rack Room Shoes Accelerates National Expansion with Lighthouse Concept Locations

By: Newsfile

Reimagining and enhancing the shopping experience for the entire family

Charlotte, North Carolina--(Newsfile Corp. - September 15, 2025) - Rack Room Shoes is building on its strategic growth plan with the opening of seven new "lighthouse concept stores" across the country. The new locations aim to reimagine and enhance the shopping experience for the entire family.

The elevated locations provide customers with an improved, multi-layered experience with better visual navigation and eye-catching elements throughout the store. Our latest generation stores improve the wayfinding of our athletic assortment and enhance the presentation of our key brands and seasonal assortments. The stores also include upgraded service elements, including community seating and integrated modern technologies in several locations for a dynamic digital presence. The flexible store design incorporates an easy to navigate layout that can adapt to seasonal changes and emerging trends.

"This is an incredibly exciting time for Rack Room Shoes as we continue to grow and evolve," said Molly Hartney, chief marketing and digital officer. "We are not just opening new stores; we are deepening our roots in communities, ensuring families have convenient access to the brands they love and the value they expect from us."

The newest locations join previous lighthouse concept stores that are open in Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Texas. Six of the new lighthouse concept stores are now open, with a seventh location set to debut later this fall. The evolution of the lighthouse stores will continue to expand or add a layered footprint in Colorado, Florida, Maryland, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, and Texas, further solidifying Rack Room Shoes as a trusted destination for families nationwide.
