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.

Optimal Dynamics Announces Gillan Hawkes, Former VP of Product at 6 River Systems, a Shopify Company, as Chief Product Officer

Optimal Dynamics, the leading innovator in automated decision intelligence for freight management, has hired product growth expert Gillan Hawkes as Chief Product Officer. Hawkes brings 20+ years of experience building and leading product teams at high-growth supply chain startups and large, global shippers. 

Most recently, Hawkes was VP of Product and Data Analytics at 6 River Systems, a warehouse automation and robotics company (acquired by Shopify), where she helped scale the company and drive significant revenue growth. In her role as Chief Product Officer, Gillan will oversee Optimal Dynamics' product vision and strategic product roadmap to deliver enormous value to clients.

"I'm excited to help the company scale & grow by championing the voice of our customers and building innovative, impactful products that support our customers' continued growth and success," says Hawkes. "The product team's mission is to deliver a great customer experience, from day one, across all touchpoints, and to ensure we are partnering with our customers to help them solve their biggest challenges."

The addition of Hawkes is a component of Optimal Dynamics' ongoing growth plan, which combines actual sector knowledge with strong analytical skills. The company is hyper-focused on finding solutions to issues that have plagued the logistics sector for decades, drawing on academic research conducted at Princeton University for the past 40 years.

"This is a tremendously exciting inflection point for our company," said Daniel Powell, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "What we started as a humble project has now grown into an enterprise-class solution used by some of the biggest names in logistics. We feel incredibly fortunate to have someone with Gillan's talent and pedigree join our team and help drive the vision forward over the next several years."

Hawkes joins a growing roster of experienced software executives that have joined the company over the past several months.  Continued Powell, "From solutions architecture to product, to customer support, we have made considerable investments in delivering a best-in-class experience for our customers."
