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.

Spring Brings Hidden Plumbing Risks: Melbourne Homeowners Urged to Watch for Tree Root Intrusions

Melbourne, Victoria - September 04, 2025 - (PRESS ADVANTAGE) -

Fix-It Right Plumbing, based in Australia, comments that with spring just around the corner, Melbourne homeowners are being warned to be on alert for one of the season’s most common - and costly - plumbing problems: tree roots invading underground pipes.

While the warmer months bring sunshine and fresh blooms above ground, the change in season also fuels aggressive root growth below the surface. Even the smallest crack in a pipe can be enough for roots to push through, seeking out the constant source of water within. Once inside, they can multiply quickly, causing blockages, cracks, or even complete pipe collapse.

“Spring is a beautiful time of year, but it’s also when we see a sharp increase in calls for root-related drain issues,” said a representative of Fix-It Right Plumbing Melbourne. “Most homeowners are unaware their drains may already be compromised. Roots can cause significant damage before you see any signs on the surface. That’s why early inspection and maintenance are so important.”

Tree roots are one of the most common springtime threats to residential plumbing systems in Melbourne. To help residents protect their homes, Fix-It Right Plumbing Melbourne is highlighting modern, non-invasive solutions such as drain relining and professional blocked drain clearing. These methods are designed to stop root intrusion at its source and prevent the need for major excavation.

“Our no-dig technology means we can fix drains from the inside, preserving your landscaping and structures," explained a representative of Fix-It Right Plumbing Melbourne. "It’s faster, cleaner, and more cost-effective than traditional replacement - and it provides a long-term solution that keeps roots out for good.”

Blocked drain clearing services use CCTV cameras to inspect pipes in real-time and high-pressure water jets to remove obstructions without harsh chemicals. “CCTV inspections allow us to see exactly what’s happening inside the pipes,” the company representative added. “This precision means we’re addressing the actual cause of the issue, which saves homeowners both time and money.”

Root intrusion isn’t just inconvenient — it can lead to leaks, soil erosion, water damage, and even sewage backups if left untreated. Scheduling an inspection in spring allows Melbourne households to take proactive action before heavier water use in the warmer months places additional strain on plumbing systems.

“A quick inspection now can save thousands in repairs later," the representative said. "If you’ve noticed slow-draining sinks, unpleasant smells, or unexplained wet patches in your garden, Melbourne residents should get drains checked before issues escalate.”
