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.

Scott Barbrack Featured In Exclusive Interview On Risk, Business, And Opportunity

By: Zexprwire

New York, US, 13th March 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Investor and entrepreneur Scott Barbrack has been featured in an exclusive online interview, offering insight into his career in finance, hospitality, and investments. In the interview, he shares his experiences navigating risk in multiple industries and the lessons he has learned from both success and failure.

“I’ve always believed that hesitation is more costly than failure,” Scott says. “The biggest opportunities come when you step outside your comfort zone.”

Scott has built a career based on smart decision-making and adaptability. He began working in finance in 1988, specializing in interest rate derivatives. Over the years, he has watched the industry evolve with new technology and data-driven strategies. While many fear market uncertainty, Scott sees it as part of the challenge.

“You don’t get to hesitate in this field,” Scott explains. “A second too late, and the opportunity is gone.”

The interview also covers Scott’s ventures outside of finance, including his role as a partner in The Lion, a well-known New York City restaurant. The Lion became a hotspot for celebrities and food enthusiasts, but Scott quickly learned that the restaurant business is just as intense as trading.

“The restaurant industry is high-risk,” he says. “Margins are tight, and competition is fierce. Every decision, from menu changes to customer experience, matters.”

Scott’s experience in hospitality further strengthened his ability to assess risk and reward. He applied that same thinking when he invested in Pretty Green, a UK-based fashion brand co-founded by Liam Gallagher of Oasis. While the brand found success, Scott understands how volatile the fashion industry can be.

“Fashion is another industry where timing is everything,” he says. “If you miss a trend, you lose. If you jump in too early, you risk burning out before the market is ready.”

Beyond business, Scott is also a strong supporter of Rutgers Athletics and various education initiatives. He has contributed to projects at Rutgers University, including naming a classroom in honor of his late father, Christopher Barbrack.

“Sports teach discipline, teamwork, and resilience,” he says. “Those are qualities that help in business and life.”

Throughout the interview, Scott shares key lessons about taking risks, making strategic decisions, and surrounding yourself with the right people. He believes that many people miss out on opportunities because they fear failure.

“Take risks earlier,” he advises. “The biggest rewards come from well-calculated but bold moves.”

Scott’s journey from finance to hospitality, fashion, and philanthropy highlights his ability to adapt to new challenges. He continues to seek opportunities and remains committed to learning and growing.
