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.

The 2025 "Aizu Festival" in Aizu Wakamatsu City will be held September 19–21

By: PRLog
Take a 4 1/2-hour journey north from Tokyo back to the samurai era.

Aug. 20, 2025 - PRLog -- The 2025 Aizu Festival will be held in Aizu Wakamatsu City from September 19 to 21. Aizu Wakamatsu, located in the southwestern part of Japan's Tohoku region, is known as the "City of Samurai." Throughout the Edo period, the Aizu Domain was an important stronghold of the Tokugawa shogunate and one of the most powerful samurai domains.

This festival is themed around "commemoration and gratitude to ancestors" and honors the 3,000 people from Aizu who lost their lives during the Boshin War, a civil war that took place from 1868 to 1869. The ceremonies will be held near "Tsuruga Castle" (also known as "Aizu Wakamatsu Castle"), it was selected by the Japan Castle Association as one of the "100 Famous Castles of Japan."

The festival takes three days, but the highlight is the Lord's Procession (Aizu Hanko Procession), a procession of 600 Aizu Domain lords and samurai. Please check here for the festival schedule.

This video shows the 2022 event.

Highlights of Aizu Wakamatsu

Aizu Wakamatsu offers plenty to see besides the Aizu Festival. For example, the "Aizu Bukeyashiki" (Samurai Residence), a reconstructed samurai mansion turned museum, the "Higashiyama Onsen," one of the top hot spring resorts in the Tohoku region, and "Aizu Hanko Nisshinkan (https://fukushima.travel/destination/aizu-hanko-nisshinkan/65)," where children of the former Aizu clan studied bushido (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushido). Nisshinkan also provides hands-on activities such as Japanese archery, zen practice, local craft and painting activities, and more. We highly recommend visiting Aizu Wakamatsu (https://www.japan.travel/en/destinations/tohoku/fukushima/aizuwakamatsu-and-oze/) to enjoy the seasonal charm of Japan north of Tokyo.
