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.

FedEx Collaborates With the Blockchain Research Institute and INSEAD to Develop New Course Series on Web3 in Global Commerce

FedEx is excited to announce the launch of a new series of courses on Web3 and Blockchain in Global Commerce, developed in collaboration with the Blockchain Research Institute and INSEAD. The courses are now available on Coursera.

The four-course "Specialization" introduces learners to the world of Web3 and blockchain for global commerce, explaining what blockchain is, how it works, and why it is revolutionary. The courses also cover how blockchain is disrupting global supply chains, including how it will transform operations, logistics, procurement and purchasing, transportation, customs and border control, trade finance, insurance, manufacturing, and inventory management, making the entire network more adaptable and responsive to demand fluctuations and crisis.

"FedEx was excited to work with the Blockchain Research Institute and INSEAD to develop this series of courses on Web3 and blockchain in global commerce," said Rob Carter, EVP and CIO at FedEx Corporation. "We understand the importance of education in this area to help accelerate the adoption of blockchain and Web3-enabled technologies moving forward."

Dale Chrystie, Business Fellow and Blockchain Strategist at FedEx, explains, "At FedEx, we are at the unique intersection of the physical and digital worlds, and we believe Web3 and blockchain will completely transform global supply chains." 

2023 is poised to be a breakout year for blockchain in the enterprise, and the demand for professionals with knowledge of blockchain and Web3 is increasing rapidly. According to a recent IDC report, the blockchain solutions market is currently estimated at $6.6 billion, with a projected compound annual growth rate of 48% over the 2019-2024 period.

"The amazing thing about blockchain is it offers something for everyone — in any field — because everyone is a part of global commerce," says Don Tapscott, co-founder and Executive Chairman of the Blockchain Research Institute, and one of the instructors for the course series. "Maybe you're an entrepreneur looking for different ways to grow your business in the global economy, or you're from a farming community looking for ways to tap into global food markets, or you're a medical professional and you worry about the quality of drugs available to your patients. Maybe you're a conscientious consumer and you want to buy ethically sourced products, or you're a travel agent looking to keep track of bookings or set up digital passports for easier border crossings, or you're a citizen fed up with the lack of transparency and accountability of government leaders. We're all looking for ways to build trust and get at the truth."

By enrolling in our new course series, you can gain the knowledge and skills necessary to contribute to building Web3 for global commerce and be a part of this exciting new chapter in the history of the internet.
