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.

Easy Monster Margarita is No Trick, All Treat

By: NewsUSA

(NewsUSA) - The kids may be out trick-or-treating, but 70% of U.S. adults say they are celebrating Halloween at home, and approximately half of them will be hosting a party, according to a recent survey by the National Retail Federation. A suitably ghoulish gathering calls for a spooktacular and memorable menu.

When planning your Halloween party, you can keep it fun and simple without the hassle. Try these easy, delicious ideas that will let you spend more time enjoying the party and less time prepping.

Scoop narrow dollops of sour cream onto a serving platter, add peppercorns for eyes, and transform them into sour cream ghosts to pair with your spicy dip and chips. For a spooky twist, drizzle caramel in a spider web pattern over apple slices, or melt chocolate into a large spider web on a wooden board. Once it hardens, top with pretzels just before guests arrive, and sprinkle edible spiders or candy bugs to complete the creepy-crawly look!

For your Halloween drinks, Seagram's Escapes makes it easy to brew up a wickedly delicious Monster Margarita—no tricks, just treats! Whether you're serving party guests or sipping at home while handing out candy, this spooky cocktail features the citrusy burst of Seagram’s Escapes Jamaican Me Smile and takes less than 10 minutes to conjure up. Perfect for a frightfully fun night!
