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.

What Is a Trivet?

A trivet may look like a simple piece of kitchen gear, but it serves a crucial purpose. Essentially, a trivet is a platform or stand designed to protect your countertops and dining surfaces from heat damage caused by hot pots, pans, or dishes. They can also be used to place potted plants or fish bowls on top of to prevent water rings and damage. Trivets can be made from a variety of materials, including wood, silicone, and metal, but iron trivets, in particular, are known for their robust durability, timeless style, and versatility.

Historically, trivets have been used as both functional and decorative items. Their sturdy design makes them perfect for holding cast iron pots or hot dishes, while their intricate patterns and craftsmanship add charm to any dining table or kitchen.

Benefits of a Trivet

Still wondering why you need an iron trivet in your kitchen? Here are the key benefits that make them worth the investment.

1. Protect Your Surfaces

Hot cookware placed directly on countertops or dining tables can cause unsightly scorch marks or permanent damage. Trivets provide a heat-resistant barrier, preventing heat transfer while keeping your surfaces intact.

2. Durability and Longevity

Iron trivets are built to last. Unlike silicone or plastic alternatives, iron trivets won’t warp or degrade over time. They can withstand extreme heat and heavy pots, making them a long-lasting and reliable addition to your kitchen.

3. Aesthetic Appeal

Iron trivets are more than just functional—they’re works of art. Their hand-forged designs and intricate patterns add beauty and character to your table. Whether you lean toward traditional or modern styles, there’s an iron trivet that fits your aesthetic.

4. Versatility

Iron trivets aren’t confined to the kitchen. They can be used for hot pots, serving dishes, or even as wall decor. Some people use them as plant stands or decorative bases for candles, making them a multi-functional and stylish choice.

5. Eco-Friendly Choice

Most iron trivets are eco-friendly and sustainable, crafted from durable materials that reduce the need for constant replacements. If you’re looking for a piece that is both environmentally conscious and aesthetically pleasing, iron trivets are the way to go.
