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.

Cosmetic and Personal Care Products Recalled Due to Potential Bacterial Contamination

By: WebWire

In May, Health Canada issued a recall notice for various cosmetic and personal care products sold under three different brand names. The imported products included flushable skin cleansing wipes, continence care barrier cloths, maceratable bed baths, shampoo caps and maceratable wet wipes.

Over 800,000 units of the products were sold across Canada from April of 2020 to April of 2022. According to the manufacturer's news release, the recalled products could be contaminated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a type of bacteria that can cause disease not only in humans, but also in animals. In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that serious Pseudomonas infections usually occur in people in the hospital and/or with a weakened immune system, but also states that healthy people can develop mild illnesses from contact with the bacteria. The agency did list Multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa as a “Serious Threat” in the Antibiotic Resistance Threats in the United States, 2019 (2019 AR Threats Report).

Working to help manufacturers, distributors, retailers, importers and regulatory agencies prevent these types of costly product recalls, and the health risks associated with contaminated products reaching consumers, are the microbial testing experts at MPL Laboratories. Their scientists provide microbial testing for a broad spectrum of contaminants, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Testing takes place at MPL's FDA registered, cGMP and ISO 17025 compliant laboratory to ensure the highest quality results.
