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 Nottaway 2 blends cottage charm with country character in a well-balanced two-story home plan, ideal as a full-time residence or vacation retreat. This three-bedroom plan features a wide, vaulted front porch with open gables, bold posts, and exposed trusses that add rustic appeal. Stone accents along the base and shake shingles in the gables enhance its natural, earthy style, while large windows provide symmetry and invite in abundant light.

Inside, the vaulted great room immediately draws attention with its sense of space and brightness. This central living area offers a seamless connection to the kitchen and dining room, all under a shared vaulted ceiling. With plenty of outward-facing windows, the entire space feels open and connected to the outdoors. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with a peninsula eating bar for casual dining, entertaining, or enjoying a quiet morning coffee.

The main level also features a private owners’ suite tucked at the rear of the home. This peaceful retreat includes a walk-in closet and ensuite bath, combining comfort with convenience. A second bedroom and full bath are located just down the hall, ideal for guests, children, or multi-generational living. The nearby utility room provides extra storage and laundry space, making the layout highly functional for daily life or extended stays.

Upstairs, a charming third bedroom is privately tucked into the dormer. With an 8-foot ceiling and extra space from the dormer extension, this room is perfect for guests, a home office, or a bunkroom for kids. A full bath and attic access add to its functionality. The loft-style landing offers a view into the great room below, maintaining a sense of openness across both floors.

Measuring 34 feet wide by 50 feet deep, the Nottaway 2 is well-suited for narrower lots or scenic sites. Its warm exterior, natural materials, and efficient layout make it an inviting option for those who appreciate the simplicity and comfort of rural living in a stylish, low-maintenance design.

The Nottaway 2 31-419 created by Associated Designs, Inc.’s talented team of residential home designers. To learn more about this design visit www.AssociatedDesigns.com.
