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.

Driving Successful Lives Seeks Donated Wheelchair-Accessible Van for Man with Disabilities

A used retrofitted van could change a life — and DSL is ready to make it happen

(PRUnderground) April 17th, 2025

Driving Successful Lives (DSL), a Michigan-based national nonprofit, is urgently seeking the donation of a gently used, wheelchair-accessible van to support a local man with disabilities whose current vehicle is no longer safe for use.

The man’s existing van has over 200,000 miles, severe rust damage, and holes in the floor. Despite his perseverance, the van’s frequent breakdowns and costly repairs have made it nearly impossible for him to get around.

“If you saw his current van—with the rusted-out frame, holes in the floor, and constant mechanical issues—you’d understand his desperate need,” said Mark Maupin, Director of Driving Successful Lives. “A donated van in usable condition, even if it needs a few repairs, could completely restore his independence and dignity.”

DSL is committed to covering some of the necessary repairs to ensure any donated van is roadworthy and fully accessible. This appeal reflects the organization’s ongoing mission to empower individuals through donated vehicles and meaningful community programs.

This is not the first time DSL has stepped in to help those with mobility needs. In a recent effort, the nonprofit funded repairs for a disabled senior’s hand-control van, enabling him to drive again and reclaim his autonomy.

Beyond vehicle assistance, DSL’s impact is widespread:

Over 500 turkeys were donated to struggling families during Thanksgiving 2024.

Through its Real Estate Donation Program, DSL has repurposed abandoned and neglected properties to provide housing for veterans, homeless individuals, and recovering addicts.

You Can Help
If you own a wheelchair-accessible van in decent condition and no longer need it, your donation could dramatically improve someone’s quality of life. DSL makes the donation process easy and meaningful.

About Driving Successful Lives

Driving Successful Lives’ mission is to help raise funds and improve the lives of veterans, homeless families, children, those with addictions while helping donors generate a tax deduction, often with property or vehicles they might no longer want.

Every time a person gives to the charity of their choice it may also create a tax benefit for them. Car donations, real estate donations or money donated to non-profit institutions throughout the tax year may be tax deductible which means that they could make a positive difference for people while reducing the amount of income taxes they pay. Contributing to charities can be a very convenient way to reduce taxes and help others.
