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.

University Games and KID Group Partner to Launch Sling It, The Medieval Sausage Slinging Game

By: PR Leap
(PRLeap.com) Gather Ye for a Game of Skill. University Games and KID Group have partnered to launch Sling It, the rollicking new outdoor game with unusually long bean bags.

Created by Bop It inventor, Dan Klitsner, and his partners at KID Group, Sling It (for 2-4 players, ages 6+) is a highly competitive backyard game where players sling sausage-shaped beanbags toward a medieval-inspired structure with vertical slots, with the aim of getting sausages wedged closest to the top of the columns.

Sling It is a brand-new outdoor experience that's as social as cornhole, as exciting as axe-throwing, and more satisfying than either, due to the gratifying "THWACK" of the floppy sausage-shaped bean bags wedging into the slots. This new game is an easy-to-play, tough-to-master competition that makes it perfect for any backyard, and portable enough to take to a tailgate party, beach, or BBQ - and it can even be hung on the wall of your medieval castle basement for indoor play during the winter. (How to Play Sling It Video).

Sling It is said to be inspired by a one-thousand-year-old Mallorca festival known as Dia de la Sobrasada (Day of the Sausages). Hence, Sling It utilizes its medieval origin in a playful theme and description.

"University Games is delighted to partner with KID to bring Sling It joy to the land," exclaimed Craig Hendrickson, SVP Product Development at University Games. "Sling It blends simple play with challenging skills in a perfect quest for both young and old."

"I have always admired University Games' wizardry in distributing so many unique and worthy games all over the world," Klitsner added. "We're beyond excited to be able to bring medieval sausage slinging to backyard gatherings and tailgate festivities across the country."

For its official unveiling, Sling It shall be played at The American International Toy Fair, held in New York City, March 1-4 (University Games Booth #665). Sling It is available to ship soon to the grand markets of the realm, and various tournaments are planned for the coming year to celebrate its arrival.
