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.

U.S. Senate Passes Bill to Fund CFTC Whistleblower Program

By: WebWire

Today, the U.S. Senate unanimously passed a bi-partisan bill that will effectively save the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Whistleblower Program by modifying the Consumer Protection Fund. The bill will ensure that the CFTC's Whistleblower Office can continue to function. The bill will not go to the House for approval.

The CFTC Whistleblower Office had previously been on the verge of collapse as a limit on the amount of money that can be deposited into the CFTC's Consumer Protection Fund, the lone source for rewarding whistleblowers and operating the Whistleblower Office, was running out of money.

The deficit was created because the fund has strict limits, and the CFTC program is now among the most successful and well managed whistleblower programs in the United States.

After seeing unanticipated success since its inception, the program was overextended and in dire need of Congressional intervention.

The bi-partisan bill was sponsored by Senator Debbie Stabenow (D-MI), and co-sponsored by Senator Charles Grassley (R-IA), among others.

According to the bill, the CFTC must create a separate $10 million “account” that will be used to fund the administrative, programmatic, and personnel expenses of the whistleblower program.

“This is a major victory for whistleblowers everywhere,” said whistleblower attorney Stephen M. Kohn, partner at Kohn, Kohn & Colapinto. “For over a year, the whistleblowing community has called for emergency congressional action to save the CFTC program. Senate passage was a critical step to amending the Commodity Exchange Act based on the success of the program.”

Kohn, who also serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Whistleblower Center, added, “Both Senators Stabenow and Grassley deserve the thanks of the American people for working together to make sure that this invaluable whistleblower program, designed to detect frauds in the commodities markets, continues to function. Whistleblowers deserve support, and they just got it from the Senate.”
