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.

Don't Forget These 6 Things on the Day of Your College Entrance Exams

SPONSORED CONTENT -- (StatePoint) While every institution weighs college entrance exam scores a little bit differently, one thing is certain: doing well can only boost your application to the school of your choice. That’s why you don’t want to leave anything to chance on the day of your test. Pack these items the night before so you can grab extra sleep in the morning:

1. An extra layer: There is nothing more distracting than being hot or cold. Remember, you’ll be sitting still in the test site for a long time, so you want to make sure you’re prepared. Dress in layers so you can stay comfortable, no matter what temperature the room is.

2. A snack and water bottle: Bring a snack and a water bottle so you can stay focused on the test questions, not a growling stomach. The college entrance exam is a marathon, not a sprint, so opt for brain-healthy snacks that will keep you fueled to think straight for hours, such as nuts, dark chocolate or berries, and avoid options that will make you sluggish or cause your blood sugar to spike and crash.

3. A calculator: Ace the math portion of the exam with a calculator you can count on. The fx-9750GIII graphing calculator from Casio, for example, is approved for the SAT, PSAT, ACT and AP tests, and features an intuitive icon menu, making it incredibly easy to use, even when your work is being timed. With hundreds of hours of battery life, it’s a reliable choice for a long day of testing.

4. Writing utensils: While some college entrance exams are now being administered digitally, you’ll still want to make sure you’re equipped with several pens or freshly-sharpened pencils for scratch work. And if you are taking the test on paper, be sure to bring No. 2 pencils with erasers.

5. A testing device: If you’ll be taking the test digitally, bring a fully-charged, approved testing device and charger. The device should also have any needed testing software already installed.

6. Your identification and test ticket: Most exams require you to bring an admissions ticket and photo identification. For a smooth test day, don’t leave these items at home.

Tests like the ACT and SAT are important pieces of the college admissions puzzle. Being prepared for test day with all the items you need can help you stay focused, and perform your best.
