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.

Dads' Resource Center Identifies 4 Common Challenges Single Fathers Face

Dads' Resource Center Supports Single Fathers

According to the 2021 Annie Casey Foundation Kids Count Report, 34% of children under the age of 18 in the United States live in single-parent families. Most of these 23,756,000 children live with their mothers, and all too often have limited access to their father, his parents and extended family. When this happens, these fathers need the assistance of organizations like the Dads' Resource Center. 

"In some cases, single fathers are less engaged in the lives of their children than we all desire," said Dads' Resource Center Founder Dr. Joel N. Myers. "But, in the majority of cases, the family courts, county and human service systems prevent rather than encourage fathers to be actively engaged and involved with their children. These biases against fathers have an overwhelmingly negative impact on our children, culture, and economy."

Since its inception in 2016, the DRC has found that these are four of the most common challenges single fathers face in their efforts to be active in their children's lives:

Not being able to see their children. The greatest calling for any man is to be there for his children. Too often, able and willing fathers are unnecessarily limited or completely denied access to their children by those systems meant to protect the well-being of children.  

Being boxed in by child support systems - Most single fathers want to continue to provide for their children. However, according to the National Parents Organization, "More than 50% of obligor parents are pushed below the poverty line because of unrealistic child support obligations that prove impossible for them to meet & prevent them from fully participating in raising their children." 

Money issues - Most times, fathers leave the residence during a separation to ensure stability for the mother. While transitioning to a single income, dads need to maintain current obligations such as debts and vehicle payments, pay support, and if custody is contentious, pay tens of thousands of dollars in legal and lawyer fees. This often leads to:  

Housing issues - Very quickly, a father can find himself with very little left over to secure new housing and purchase new housewares. The best a father might be able to do is have a small one-room or one-bedroom rental. When this is the case, it often is held against him being able to have overnight visits with his children.  

About the Dads' Resource Center (www.dadsrc.org)

Founded by AccuWeather Founder and CEO Dr. Joel N. Myers, Dads' Resource Center is the leading advocate for single fathers. DRC believes that father absence is a major factor in nearly every social issue our country faces and that all able and willing dads should be allowed to uphold their sacred responsibility as fathers.
