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.

Ascend Ranks Among the Best in the United States at No. 9 on the List

BOULDER, Colo. - Sept. 9, 2025 - PRLog -- Great Place To Work and Fortune magazine have again recognized Ascend, Inc. for the 2025 Fortune Best Small Workplaces™ List. This is the seventh time Ascend has been named to this prestigious list, ranking No. 9 this year, which means the company is one of the best small places to work for in the country.

"Being recognized as one of Fortune's Best Small Workplaces is a reflection of the incredible people who make Ascend what it is today," said Camie Cole, Manager, People Operations. "This recognition belongs to our employees, whose dedication, creativity, and collaboration make our workplace exceptional."

The Best Small Workplaces list is highly competitive. To determine the list, Great Place To Work analyzed the survey responses of nearly 32,000 employees from Great Place To Work Certified™ companies with 10 to 99 U.S. employees.

Honorees were selected based on their ability to offer positive outcomes for employees regardless of job role, race, gender, sexual orientation, work status, or other demographic identifiers. According to Michael C. Bush, CEO at Great Place To Work, these companies "make the most of their strategic advantages as smaller organizations, ensuring every employee feels recognized for their contributions and rewarded with their fair share of the benefits of success".

"Our track record of excellence comes down to one thing—our people," said Sandi Mundt, SVP of Marketing at Ascend, Inc. "Their dedication, talent, drive, and teamwork are what make Ascend a great place to work. Each individual contributes in unique and meaningful ways to the culture and success we celebrate today, and we are proud to attribute this latest recognition to them. Thank you, Ascenders, for everything you do to make this possible!"

In addition to this seventh appearance on the Best Small Workplaces list, Ascend is celebrating a "Decade of Great" culture with its 10th consecutive year of certifying as a Great Place to Work. The company has also been named multiple times to Fortune's Consulting & Professional Services list and as an Inc. 5000 fastest growing company.
