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.

FoodSafetyKey and Starfish Announce Partnership to Support Global Suppliers with Food Safety Traceability Compliance

Starfish and FoodSafetyKey partner to help global suppliers meet FSMA 204 traceability & Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) requirements through streamlined data capture and compliance.

(PRUnderground) May 13th, 2025

FoodSafetyKey, a regulatory compliance platform supporting international food exporters, and Starfish, the food industry’s neutral interoperability platform, are proud to announce a strategic partnership aimed at helping global suppliers meet the evolving traceability requirements under the U.S. Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).

FSMA and FSVP highlight the growing need for transparent, connected supply chains, where traceability data can be accurately captured, stored, and shared across all stakeholders. For exporters, the challenge isn’t just regulatory—it’s about ensuring their data can flow across systems and borders to support food safety, trust, and market access.

“One of the biggest barriers to compliance is fragmentation—producers, packers, exporters, and buyers often operate in silos,” said Juan Pablo Avendaño, CEO of FoodSafetyKey. “We help supply chain partners organize the data required for traceability, and with Starfish, that data can now move seamlessly—connecting systems, countries, and compliance needs in a secure and standardized way.”

FoodSafetyKey supports companies with onboarding tools and regulatory expertise, while Starfish powers the secure exchange of traceability data by translating it into globally recognized GS1 standards. Together, they offer a practical, scalable solution for supply chain compliance, without replacing existing systems.

“This partnership brings together two critical capabilities: structured data capture and system-to-system connectivity,” said Wiggs Civitillo, CEO of Starfish. “We’re making FSMA compliance more practical and accessible for companies navigating complex global supply chains.”
