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.

Dennis Pappas Highlights Brooklyn’s Green Potential for 2025

By: Zexprwire

Tackling Challenges with Community-Focused Design

New York, US, 10th January 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, As 2025 approaches, the need for sustainable, community-centered urban spaces in Brooklyn has never been more urgent. Landscape architect Dennis Pappas is calling for transformative initiatives to address climate challenges and enhance the borough’s livability. From community gardens in Bedford-Stuyvesant to flood-resilient waterfronts along the East River, Pappas envisions a greener, more connected Brooklyn.

“Brooklyn’s strength is its communities,” says Pappas. “By focusing on green spaces that bring people together, we can tackle environmental challenges while creating vibrant neighborhoods where people want to live, work, and play.”

Brooklyn’s Unique Challenges

Brooklyn faces rising temperatures, frequent flooding, and a lack of equitable access to green spaces. The urban heat island effect raises temperatures by up to 7°F, disproportionately impacting vulnerable communities. Meanwhile, neighborhoods along the East River and Gowanus Canal are increasingly at risk from storm surges and heavy rainfall.

“The time to act is now,” says Pappas. “Climate change is here, and green infrastructure is one of the best tools we have to protect Brooklyn’s residents while improving their quality of life.”

Community-Focused Solutions

Pappas highlights several key initiatives that can address these challenges while strengthening Brooklyn’s communities:

  • Community Gardens: Expanding gardens in neighborhoods like Bedford-Stuyvesant and Crown Heights to encourage local food production, foster connections, and empower residents.

  • Waterfront Resilience: Enhancing green infrastructure along the East River and Gowanus Canal with rain gardens, wetlands, and public recreational spaces to manage stormwater and reduce flooding risks.

  • Green Streets: Incorporating bioswales and permeable pavements into residential areas to handle stormwater and reduce urban heat islands.

  • Playground Innovations: Updating outdated playgrounds with sustainable materials and nature-inspired designs that reflect Brooklyn’s creative spirit and artistic identity.

Opportunities for a Greener Brooklyn

The benefits of these initiatives are far-reaching. Community gardens improve food security and mental health while fostering a sense of belonging. Green streets and bioswales can reduce stormwater runoff by up to 80%, alleviating pressure on city drainage systems. Resilient waterfronts not only protect against flooding but also provide much-needed public spaces for recreation and relaxation.

“Brooklyn can lead the way in showing how urban design and environmental resilience go hand in hand,” Pappas explains. “These projects aren’t just about solving problems—they’re about creating opportunities for communities to thrive.”

As Brooklyn faces the challenges of a changing climate, Pappas emphasizes the importance of collaboration. “Residents, city planners, and private developers must work together to make these ideas a reality. A greener Brooklyn is a stronger Brooklyn.”
