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 Lowdown on Today's Most Beneficial Skin Care Ingredients

SPONSORED CONTENT -- (StatePoint) Have you ever been overwhelmed by the range of skin care products available today or read a word you didn’t understand on the side of packaging? Niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3 and one of the more common ingredients in skin care today, may be one of those unfamiliar words you’ve had questions about.

“If you’re confused about niacinamide, it’s not your fault,” says dermatologist, Dr. Michelle Henry. “Often brands will choose one of the many versatile benefits of niacinamide to focus on when marketing a particular product, and this can create confusion. However, it can target many skin concerns.”

To help you incorporate it into your routine wisely and better achieve your skin care goals, Dr. Henry is offering the lowdown on its properties and benefits:

What Does Niacinamide Do?

Niacinamide is a versatile ingredient with versatile effects on skin. Here are a few of its key benefits:

• It stimulates ceramide, pro-filaggrin and lipid synthesis to strengthen the skin barrier and boost moisture retention.

• It’s an anti-inflammatory, working to neutralize skin surface redness and discoloration.

• A treatment for dark spots and hyperpigmentation, it evens skin tone, improves clarity and brightness and radiance.

• Its sebostatic and anti-microbial activity helps to tighten pores, and balance oil production and imperfections.

• Antioxidant and enzymatic regulation helps defend against free-radical damage, revitalize and re-energize skin.

Reaping the Benefits

So how can you best reap the benefit of niacinamide?

“Because niacinamide works to smooth skin, the combination of retinol and niacinamide is a perfect pairing,” Dr. Henry explains.

Retinol, a top dermatologist-recommended ingredient, is used to fight wrinkles and to even skin texture. However it can have drying effects on some skin types.

To hydrate skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, Dr. Henry recommends a nighttime routine that includes a combination of retinol and niacinamide.

With a 12% complex of soothing ingredients, L`Oreal Paris Revitalift Pressed Night Cream with Retinol and Niacinamide helps balance the potential drying effect of retinol, leaving skin feeling deeply moisturized and softer. And its unique “fresh pressed” packaging makes it easy to get the exact dose of cream you need, cleanly. Just be sure to follow up with a broad spectrum SPF in the morning to protect skin.

While the labels on skin care products can be daunting, having a basic understanding of which ingredients work best in conjunction with one another to sooth, hydrate and smooth skin, can help you formulate a routine that leaves your complexion balanced and healthy.
