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.

Silva Construction Gives More Advice on Home Remodeling Trends

By: PRLog
SAN PEDRO, Calif. - May 20, 2025 - PRLog -- "Homeowners spent $472 billion on home renovations in Q3 of 2024, and projections indicate these expenditures will increase by $5 billion by Q3 of 2025. As a design-build firm, we are constantly exploring industry. Here are the five more design trends we're seeing for 2025.

"Energy efficiency is becoming the norm for home renovations in 2025. Homeowners are increasingly choosing heat pumps over conventional HVAC systems due to their superior efficiency. High-performance insulation materials are also helping reduce energy waste significantly. Plus, with new solar panel incentives this year, renewable energy has become more attainable."

"Open-concept layouts continue to dominate home design. They create a seamless flow between living spaces, making homes feel more spacious and ideal for entertaining or family time. If you're considering a full renovation, removing interior walls to open up your floor plan could dramatically enhance the functionality and appeal of your home, particularly in smaller spaces."

"Homeowners are increasingly turning to natural materials in their remodeling projects. Elements like wood, stone, and brick bring a sense of warmth and authenticity to interiors. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, these materials are often more resilient and environmentally friendly than synthetic options. When renovating areas like the kitchen or bathroom, consider incorporating granite, marble, or wood for countertops and backsplash surfaces."

"Although bold and vibrant hues can add personality, many people are choosing neutral tones for their home updates. Shades like gray, beige, and white offer a timeless, serene backdrop and pair easily with a wide range of decor. If you're refreshing your home's look, think about starting with a neutral palette and using colorful accents—like furniture, pillows or artwork—for contrast and interest."

"Maximizing natural light can transform a room, making it feel larger, brighter, and more welcoming. When renovating, think about adding features such as large windows, skylights, or glass doors to bring more sunlight inside. This not only enhances the ambiance but can also help lower energy use by reducing the need for artificial lighting."
