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.

Getting ready for your plastic surgery: A complete guide

Are you about to have plastic surgery? If so, you’ll want to spend some time getting ready. Preparation is vital when planning on having a Breast Enhancement or Body Contouring procedure. We understand how important it is for you to feel safe and well-informed while you wait the big day, so read on as we lay out everything you need to know about our pre-op protocol!

A month before surgery:

  • You must have lab work done within 30 days of your surgery, and you must get a medical clearance from your primary care provider.
  • You should stop all estrogen-based products 30 days prior to the surgery date.

3 weeks before surgery:

  • You should stop smoking, using a nicotine patch, chewing nicotine gum, or using any
  • other tobacco product for at least three weeks before surgery.
  • Stay away from other people who are smoking.
  • Do not use any nasal spray or allergy medications three weeks prior to surgery.
  • Please ask before taking any medications.

2 weeks before surgery:

  • Do not take aspirin or aspirin-containing products for two weeks before and after surgery.
  • Please discontinue all herbal medications.
  • Do not take diet pills for two weeks prior to surgery.

A week before surgery:

  • Do not drink alcoholic beverages for at least a week before and after surgery.
  • If you become sick with any virus, sore throat, temperature (fever), or cough, notify your surgeon prior to coming to the office. Also, ensure you have discussed this with the Anesthesiologist in your pre-op appointment if symptoms are still present. If you have any of these symptoms, your surgery will be canceled.

The day of plastic surgery:

  • Do not eat or drink anything, not even water, after midnight the night before your surgery. The last meal should be 12 hours prior to surgery. No gum, candy, mints, or coffee on the morning of surgery.
  • Take two showers with anti-bacterial soap, one the night before surgery and one in the morning.
  • Thoroughly clean the areas of the body to be operated on for ten minutes in each shower, especially under the arms for breast surgery and groin areas for body surgery.
  • Do not use lotions, perfume, or powder after showering.
  • Do not use creams, lotions, hair gels, sprays, perfumes, powder, or deodorant on your skin, hair, or face.
  • Wear no make-up or lip gloss.
  • Remove all jewelry and leave valuable items at home (wallet, watches, cell phone, and jewelry).
  • Remove contact lenses.
  • Remove acrylic, gel, and nail polish and cut them on both hands.
  • The denture must be removed prior to going to the operating room unless approved by Anesthesia the previous day. Bring a denture cup.
  • Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes. Bring a robe after surgery, wear cotton socks and comfortable shoes if possible, and wear slippers.
  • Bring a companion. You won’t be allowed to drive after outpatient surgery. Plan to have someone take you home.
  • Your surgeon will tell you whether you should take any medications on the day of the procedure.

 

You’re excited! You’re getting ever closer to having your dream body! But remember: the perfect result comes not only from the surgery but also from proper preparation and meticulous aftercare.

 

So, keep an eye on this checklist, and don´t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.
