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.

Real Smoke Flavor Elevates Classic Summer Grilling Dishes

The Elote Hot Dog

SPONSORED CONTENT -- (StatePoint) From patriotic holidays to park side barbecues to casual weeknight dinners, you can elevate your grilling game this summer with premium ingredients, and some culinary inspiration.

To help you get started, Bear Mountain BBQ, maker of 100% all-natural hardwood pellets for pellet grills and smokers, has asked two of their favorite chefs to share new takes on grilling classics.

First up are these loaded, smoky Elote Hot Dogs, brought to you by Bear Mountain ambassador, Meiko Temple:

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Serves: 8 hot dogs

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup mayonnaise

• 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

• 1 teaspoon tajin seasoning

• 1 teaspoon Cholula hot sauce (optional)

• 4 ears corn, husks removed

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

• 1/3 cup chopped cilantro

• 1/3 cup grated Cotija cheese (option: grate additional for garnish)

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 1/4 teaspoon chili powder, garnish

• 8 jumbo hot dogs, butterflied

• 8 hot dog buns

• Bear Mountain BBQ’s Chef’s Choice Pellets, available exclusively at Walmart

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lime juice, tajin seasoning and hot sauce. Refrigerate until ready for use.

2. Preheat grill or smoker to 375 degrees F with pellets. Clean and oil cooking grates.

3. Remove husk and silk from corn cobs. Brush with melted butter.

4. Place corn on the grill over direct heat. Open flame broiler plate and rotate regularly to char all sides.

5. Transfer corn to the side of indirect heat every 5 minutes for approximately 15 minutes.

6. Remove from grill. Let cool.

7. Use a sharp knife to slice off kernels.

8. With a sharp knife, make a lengthwise cut along the top of each hot dog. Don’t cut all the way through. You want the hot dog to remain in one piece, creating a butterfly-like shape.

9. Grill hot dogs over indirect heat for 2 to 3 minutes per side.

10. To the chili lime mayo bowl, add grilled corn, Cotija cheese, cilantro and garlic. Toss to make the elote. Place hot dogs into buns cut side up. Add elote into the center cut. Garnish with additional cheese and chili powder. Enjoy!
