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.

U.S. Creative Chosen as Dual Judge for China's Most Prestigious Animation & Comics Awards

Historic Cultural Exchange: China Selects Hollywood Creative Executive Rick Law for Unprecedented Dual Final Judge Role in Animation and Comics Awards

GUANGZHOU, China - Oct. 2, 2025 - PRLog -- Disney veteran chosen for dual top judging honor at both the Golden Monkey King Awards and CACC Golden Dragon Awards

In a historic cultural exchange, the People's Republic of China has selected Rick Law, Hollywood creative executive and longtime Disney collaborator, for an unprecedented honor: serving as distinguished final judge for both the nation's two most prestigious state-supported awards in animation and comics—the Golden Monkey King Awards (China's highest official honor for animation excellence, presented at the China International Cartoon & Animation Festival [CICAF], Hangzhou) and the CACC Golden Dragon Awards (regarded as "China's Academy Award of animation & comics," presented at the China International Comics Festival [CICF], Guangzhou).

This appointment marks the first time a non-Chinese executive has served in this dual, top-level judging capacity for both awards in a single year.

In May 2025, Mr. Law was appointed as final in-person judge and presenter at the Golden Monkey King Awards. In September 2025, he was additionally invited as final judge for the Golden Dragon Awards, underscoring the trust and distinction placed in him by China's cultural and creative community.

"Animation and comics are universal languages that connect and inspire cultures," stated Mr. Law.

Mr. Law's recognition in China follows decades of creative partnership. He was a key creative in Disney's expansion into China, serving as creative lead in the design and launch of Disney English—a major educational initiative in China; acting as consultant in the development of the Shanghai Disney Resort; initiating the Disney English Toys line—introducing modern educational toys to the Chinese market; and creating Kung-Fu Mickey Mouse (功夫米老鼠), which inspired the popular children's book series written by Yang Peng. His collaborations with Chinese toy licensee MINDStyle further demonstrate his role as a cultural bridge who respects Chinese storytelling traditions.

"Rick Law's work demonstrates that true globalization is not a one-way export, but a two-way cultural chemical reaction," commented a professor from the China Academy of Art, emphasizing Mr. Law's contributions embody cross-cultural impact.

About the Awards:

The Golden Monkey King Awards are China's highest official state honor for animation excellence. Presented annually at the China International Cartoon & Animation Festival (CICAF) in Hangzhou, the awards are sponsored by the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio and Television of the People's Republic of China and the Zhejiang Provincial People's Government.

The CACC Golden Dragon Awards, hosted at the China International Comics Festival (CICF) in Guangzhou, are recognized as "China's Academy Award of animation & comics," celebrating outstanding achievements in animation, comics, and manhua through a dedicated state-supported body.
