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.

Charge Your Car Day 2025: CTEK Says Never Stop Charging

Charge You Car Day is Sunday, October 5th

(PRUnderground) October 3rd, 2025

Sunday, October 5th marks Charge Your Car Day, and CTEK, the global leader in smart battery charging solutions, is reminding North American drivers that battery care shouldn’t be a once-a-year event. Their message is simple: Never Stop Charging.

As it’s Charge Your Car Day, CTEK is taking the opportunity to encourages drivers to commit to making regular battery charging a part of their routine to prevent breakdowns, enhance vehicle performance, prolong battery life, and save money.

To help clear up common misconceptions, CTEK is debunking five outdated battery myths that could be putting your car—and your wallet—at risk:

Myth 1: If my car starts, the battery must be fine.
Busted: Even if your car starts, your battery could be slowly deteriorating. Modern vehicles draw power constantly—even when parked—leading to silent battery drain that often goes unnoticed until it’s too late.

Myth 2: Battery failure is rare.
Busted: Battery failure is actually the #1 cause of vehicle breakdowns, responsible for about 40% of roadside assistance calls. Most drivers only discover their battery is failing when they’re stranded.

Myth 3: My alternator keeps the battery charged.
Busted: Not always. Short trips and infrequent driving don’t give the alternator enough time to recharge the battery. Plus, advanced vehicle tech like stop-start systems can drain more power than the alternator replaces.

Myth 4: Car batteries last for years without maintenance.
Busted: Without regular charging, battery life shortens significantly. Using a smart charger like CTEK’s can triple your battery’s lifespan—saving time, money, and hassle.

Myth 5: Charging is complicated and only for experts.
Busted: Not with CTEK. Trusted by over 50 top car brands including Lamborghini, Porsche, and McLaren, CTEK’s smart chargers are safe, simple, and automatic—perfect for any driver.

This Charge Your Car Day, CTEK encourages drivers to adopt a simple habit: plug in a smart charger regularly to keep your battery at peak performance. It’s the easiest way to avoid battery failure, improve vehicle performance, and extend battery life.

A fully charged battery powers everything better—from essential systems to comfort features like air conditioning. And with winter approaching, battery care becomes even more critical. Research shows that 1 in 3 vehicles entering service shops has a battery that needs attention—a number that jumps to over 50% in colder months.

“Charge Your Car Day on October 5 is a great opportunity for drivers across North America to embrace smarter car care. A dead battery can ruin your day—or cost you more than you expect,” said Steve Hayes, Head of North America. “If you already have a charger, take it out and use it. If not, investing in one will save you time and money in the long run. With CTEK, battery maintenance is simple –click here to find the best charger for you. Just connect, and the charger does the rest. It’s time to ‘Never Stop Charging.’”

CTEK chargers are recognized worldwide for their reliability and performance. This Charge Your Car Day, treat your vehicle—and yourself—by choosing to Never Stop Charging.
