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.

By: Newsfile

Beijing, China--(Newsfile Corp. - September 17, 2025) - The China Center for International Communication Development (CCICD) issued a press release on Tuesday to mark the 25th anniversary of the establishment of Lan Su Chinese Garden in Portland, recognizing the garden as a symbol of cultural bonds between China and the U.S.

According to the press release, a Chinese delegation from Suzhou also joined local guests and residents in a celebration that opened a new chapter for this classical Jiangnan-style Chinese garden.

Opened on September 14, 2000 as Portland Classical Chinese Garden, Lan Su is the result of a close collaboration with Portland's sister city, Suzhou.

More than 60 Chinese artisans constructed the garden's key structures in Suzhou before shipping the components to Portland for reassembly. Every detail-from the large Tai Hu rocks decorating the landscape to the thousands of individually laid stones forming mosaic pathways-has been meticulously planned and maintained over the years.

During the anniversary event, the garden was adorned with lanterns and ribbons. A scene from the Kunqu opera The Peony Pavilion was performed on a curved bridge, with its melodic tunes blending harmoniously with the murmuring streams and drooping willows.

In the intangible cultural heritage demonstration area, Suzhou embroiderers deftly plied their needles, stitching intricate patterns of apricot blossoms, flowing water, and traditional boats, much to the admiration of visitors.

Over the past 25 years, Lan Su Chinese Garden has attracted approximately 150,000 visitors annually and has consistently hosted events during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chinese New Year, and Lantern Festival.

"The sister-garden relationship is one of the most vibrant ties between our sister cities," said an official from the Suzhou delegation. The official added that Suzhou will continue to promote exchanges in gardening artistry and displays of intangible cultural heritage to help peoples in North America further appreciate the beauty of Suzhou gardens and the depth of Chinese culture.
