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.

Memorial Honors Heroic Act Of Bravery On The Anniversary Of The Lahaina Fires

By: PRLog

Bronze Sculpture, Ascended Master, by Forest Boone to Commemorate Sacrifice and Spirit of Lahaina, Maui

MAUI, Hawaii - Aug. 6, 2024 - PRLog -- August 8th will mark the one-year anniversary of the tragic fires that engulfed the village of Lahaina on the Hawaiian island of Maui. Renowned American sculptor, Forest Boone has been commissioned by an anonymous donor to begin designing and rendering what will be known as The Lahaina Memorial. The initial rendering for his 3-part bronze sculptural installation visually depicts a true account of one Hawaiian child's bravery that day last August when tragic fires swept across Lahaina.

The bronze memorial tells an existential story of pure agape love and its ability to transmute all things physical. In Boone's bronze installation piece, the human spirit circumvents the material and the physical. The memorial itself, named Ascended Master, is about the pure intention and impulsive heroism of a young man who was thought to have used his physical body as a human shield, in order to protect his faithful dog from the heat of the fires. Although he and the dog both perished under the tree that day, their deaths were not in vain. One might go as far as saying that he gave his life to teach us about ourselves and about what the actions of a real hero look like, about spontaneous authenticity, and about what is truly important in life when it really comes down to it.

The piece offers hope and liberation from attachments, rising above today's confused priorities. The narrative conveyed in the piece not only recognizes but embraces, even celebrates, humankind's eventual mortality and transition. Boone's memorial, when it is realized about a year and a half from now, intentionally redirects our attention to the spirit realm, where all worldly clamors pale in comparison.

Ultimately, the visual image of this anonymous young man, the one depicted in bronze protecting his dog from the heat of the fire, has the ability to become a sacrificial icon for all the innocent children who tragically perished in the fires. The theme of the piece seems to dismiss earthly attachments, our temporary bodies included, and totally sidesteps the widespread confusion of our day by taking us to a place where, simply put, love wins.

Visitors will be granted the opportunity to leave a prayer while they reflect at the foot of the bronze memorial, as there will be an on-site prayer box for receiving those prayers. The physical site for the memorial has yet to be determined and will largely depend upon a humanitarian donor who comes forward within the next year or so. Organizers are now accepting sponsors.

In the interim, the townspeople grieve and begin to heal, which is why the need for a memorial exists.
