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.

Food Company in California Issues Allergy Alert and Product Recall Due to Undeclared Egg Allergen

By: WebWire

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) posted information about an allergy alert and product recall initiated by a food company out of the Los Angeles area. The alert and recall were issued because two brands of their fish and shrimp products may contain undeclared eggs. The recalled products were distributed to retail stores in California, Indiana and Illinois.

According to the recall notice, this action was initiated after receiving a consumer complaint of an anaphylactic reaction. Through investigation, it was determined that the formulation of an ingredient in the products was changed to include eggs. The announcement goes on to warn that people who have an allergy or severe sensitivity to eggs run the risk of serious or life-threatening allergic reaction if they consume these products.

The Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act of 2004 (FALCPA) requires that food labels clearly identify the food source names of all ingredients that are, or contain any protein derived from, the eight most common food allergens. These account for 90% of allergic reactions to foods. They include eggs, wheat, milk, crustacean shellfish, fish, tree nuts, peanuts and soybeans.

“Since there is no cure for food allergies, anyone with the condition needs to avoid all foods that contain the allergen they are sensitive to in order to avoid what could be a severe reaction,” said Michael Chapman, Laboratory Manager of LA Testing's Huntington Beach facility. “At LA Testing, our laboratories in California work with food manufacturers, distributors, importers, retailers and regulators to assist with all food testing and labeling requirements. We offer a wide range of services that can not only help to prevent costly product recalls, they are also instrumental for protecting consumers and the nation's food supply.”
