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.

Associated Designs | The Buckley: A One-Story Shingle Style Home with a Unique Hexagonal Design

Blending the relaxed elegance of shingle-style architecture with the livability of a ranch-style layout, the Buckley by Associated Designs is a one-story home designed to impress. With its striking hexagonal great room, expansive view-oriented windows, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, this plan is ideal for homeowners seeking both comfort and character. From its welcoming front porch to its luxurious owner’s suite and spacious wrap-around deck, the Buckley is perfectly suited for scenic lots and a lifestyle centered on effortless entertaining and quiet retreat.

(PRUnderground) July 8th, 2025

The Buckley is a stunning one-story house plan that blends shingle-style charm with ranch-inspired functionality. Its low-profile roofline and expansive covered front porch set a welcoming tone. Cedar shakes, natural stone columns, and a lofty ten-foot ceiling define the entry, drawing guests into a light-filled foyer that leads directly into the heart of the home—its signature hexagonal great room.

This dramatic central space features exposed beams, clerestory windows, and a stone-clad corner fireplace, all oriented to capture breathtaking views ideal for a view lot. Cedar shingles and crisp trim add timeless character, while wide-plank floors and abundant natural light create an inviting atmosphere.

The kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly together, anchored by a large island and quartz countertops. A walk-in pantry adds convenience, and wide eaves help regulate sunlight throughout the day—hallmarks of classic ranch elements.

The Buckley’s four-bedroom floor plan offers privacy and flexibility. The owner’s suite occupies a private wing, complete with vaulted ceilings, fireplace, a cozy sitting alcove, and direct deck access. The luxurious en-suite bath includes dual vanities, a freestanding tub, and a spacious walk-in closet. A guest suite with its own bath sits across the home, while two additional bedrooms share a hallway bath and offer ideal spaces for family, office, or creative use.

Practical touches include a central laundry/mudroom with built-ins and discreet mechanical storage. Outside, the wrap-around deck mirrors the hexagonal core, offering multiple seating areas, a grill station, and serene views of the surrounding terrain.

Designed for both entertaining and quiet living, the Buckley offers a refined yet relaxed lifestyle in a thoughtfully crafted single-level floor plan. It’s a perfect match for anyone seeking a unique, view-oriented shingle-style house plan.

The Buckley 10-659 is created by Associated Designs, Inc.’s talented team of residential home designers. To learn more about this design visit www.AssociatedDesigns.com.
