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.

Disco, The Platform To Build A Live Learning Empire, Closes $15MM Series A Round Led By GSV Ventures

Disco, The Platform To Build A Live Learning Empire, Closes $15MM Series A Round Led By GSV Ventures

The investors behind Masterclass and Coursera double down on Disco and join top global funds and angels in investing in the future of learning

Online PR News – 01-March-2022 – Today Disco, the all-in-one platform for knowledge creators and organizations to build their live learning empires, closed a $15MM Series A funding round led by GSV Ventures.

Disco realizes that live learning is the future and creators and organizations of all sizes need a Shopify-like platform to run their live learning business. We are excited to back this all-star team pioneering the future of live learning, said Deborah Quazzo, Managing Partner at GSV Ventures who is joining the companys board of directors.

Disco the Latin word for learn offers a mission control and all-in-one platform to create & teach, learn & engage, market & sell, and operate and scale a live learning empire.

We are in the flip phone stage of where live learning is headed and we are excited to be pioneering this revolution. We are mission driven entrepreneurs and excited to reimagine the future of learning: led by trusted knowledge creators we love, with community and experiential learning at the core, and accessible from anywhere. We believe knowledge creators are the entrepreneurs of the future and they deserve a platform that gives them ownership and control of their empire, said Candice Faktor

Our vision for the platform is to be the operating system for learning communities, academies, bootcamps, and microschools. Disco is purpose built and brings together many tools such as live video, chat, event management, cohort management, curriculum/content, membership, all under one roof making the learner experience premium and seamless and the creator experience around scaling a live learning empire best in class, said Disco Co-founder Chris Sukornyk.

Zapiers Makerpad, Dribbbles product design school, NPRs Planet Money co-founder Adam Davidson are but a few examples of Discos many customers building their live learning empires.

To run a virtual academy or microschool, especially live cohort-based courses, today is a mess. You need to use about 7-10 different tools. Disco is solving a major pain point. I had to do it myself and thats why I invested. says Dan Martell, SaaS Academy Founder.

Disco also offers a premium studio model that has attracted big name knowledge creators like Margaret Atwood, cultural icon and bestselling author, and Roger Martin, Thinkers50 #1 Management Thinker (2017). Martins live learning empire with Disco is on track to be a 7-figure revenue generator this year alone.

"I have chosen to work with Disco because I think its vision for the future of education and the role of creators in it is the most insightful and forward-thinking of any organization in the space, says Martin.

Disco gets the importance for Web3 and the need for creators to own their own community, revenue, and brand. NFT certificates, wallet integration, and crypto payment protocols are all on the product roadmap for 2022. In Atwoods virtual live learning experience, Practical Utopias: An Exploration of the Possible, which was recently featured on CNN and has already garnered over 700+ applicants, participants will each receive a clean, green NFT certificate and compilation of their work minted on the Tezos blockchain.

Discos founders bring exceptionally complementary backgrounds to the company. Faktor helped scale Wattpad, one of the largest creative storytelling community platforms in the world (sold last year for $660MM). Sukornyk, is a 6x serial tech entrepreneur who founded Chango, a performance marketing platform that sold for $120MM.

Disco has seen lots of traction since they raised their seed round in early 2021. The team is fully remote and is actively hiring. Funds from this round will be used for product development, scaling go to market, and hiring an exceptional, diverse team.

Passionate about building a live learning empire, DiscoU, the learning community arm of Disco is offering a series of upcoming live learning experiences and a growth program to build your learning empire. Find out more: http://www.disco.co/
