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.

In addition, over $5 million in supplier diversity opportunities have been granted, and more than $200,000 in scholarships have been awarded, sparking local workforce growth and creating new job opportunities. With Bank of America’s support, IMPACT AZ 2025 will continue its mission of supporting entrepreneurs to build capacity for contracting opportunities.

In its newly released Women and Minority Business Owner Spotlight, Bank of America surveyed business owners nationwide, revealing shared optimism—nearly 80% of respondents anticipating revenue growth in the coming year. An event higher, 88% of respondents plan on obtaining funding for their business in the year ahead, making IMPACT AZ’s training and support even more critical for continued growth beyond government funding sources.

“Bank of America has been an invaluable partner in our efforts to close the racial wealth gap and promote economic growth for Arizona’s small businesses and communities,” said Dr. Velma Trayham, creator of IMPACT AZ 2025 and President and CEO of the Black Chamber of Arizona. “We are grateful for their dedication to empowering diverse entrepreneurs and enhancing economic opportunities across the state.”

IMPACT AZ 2025 serves diverse participants including veteran, justice-impacted, women-owned, and LGBTQ+ business owners. Participants receive hands-on support through the structured hybrid program and partnerships with businesses, local government, and nonprofit organizations such as SCORE, Arizona Public Service, the City of Phoenix, the Arizona Hispanic Chamber, and the City of Scottsdale. The program provides support in essential areas like strategic business planning, marketing, finance, operations, and supplier diversity business development to help these entrepreneurs scale, become employer firms, and access public and private contracting opportunities.

“Local small businesses are the heart of our Phoenix economy, and Millionaire Mindset Academy’s IMPACT 2025 program assists entrepreneurs working to build and grow their businesses while creating local jobs in the Phoenix market,” said Scott Vanderpool, President of Bank of America Phoenix. “Bank of America works alongside Impact 2025, delivering workshops and connecting with participants, so together we can continue to shape a collaborative environment where small business can thrive.”

Supplier diversity delivers better business outcomes: According to Supplier.io, for every $1 spent on supplier diversity programs, communities benefit by $1.80. These programs created more than 1.3 million jobs in 2023 alone. ImpactAZ helped participants secure $2 million in contracts in its first year, expand business operations by 40 percent, and allocate $300,000 in capital funding.
