About Cabling Installation & Maintenance:

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.

'Rust' star Alec Baldwin admits to extreme past drug use: ‘Cocaine was like coffee back then’

Alec Baldwin shared details of his past drug use in a conversation with Paul Anka and Skip Bronson. The "Rust" actor has been sober from drugs and alcohol for 39 years.

Alec Baldwin opened up about his past drug use in a candid conversation with Paul Anka and Skip Bronson.

Baldwin, 66, revealed he used cocaine "every day" for two years as the drug was "like coffee back then."

"I don't discuss this a lot," Baldwin said when asked about his drinking habits during an appearance on "Our Way with Paul Anka and Skip Bronson." "I discuss it every now and then when it makes sense. I'm 39 years sober. I got sober Feb. 23, 1985."

Before he struggled with alcohol, the "30 Rock" star used cocaine.

"I had a white-hot problem every day for two years," he told Anka and Bronson. "I think I snorted a line of cocaine from here to Saturn."

"I mean, cocaine was like coffee back then," Baldwin explained. "Everybody was doing it all day long."

"Because I stopped doing drugs, my drinking increased, which they tell you is going to happen. And that did happen. I just started drinking."

Baldwin noted he doesn't "miss drugs at all," but he does "miss drinking."

"I like to drink," he admitted.

"Because you don't drink and because you don't do drugs, what do you do? Do you meditate?" Bronson asked.

"I do try to meditate," Baldwin explained, although his seven kids with wife Hilaria Baldwin don't make it easy. "Meditating with seven children is like trying to play pingpong on the deck of an aircraft carrier. It's a real pain in the a--, man."

WATCH: ALEC BALDWIN DODGES QUESTIONS ABOUT INVOLUNTARY MANSLAUGHTER TRIAL

Just over two months before Baldwin's involuntary manslaughter trial is set to begin, one of the three special prosecutors has withdrawn from the "Rust" case.

Jason A. Lewis, who also prosecuted Gutierrez Reed's case, submitted a motion to withdraw from Baldwin's case, which went unopposed by Baldwin's legal team.

Lewis' official withdrawal from Baldwin's case came shortly after the prosecution added Erlinda Johnson to the roster. Mary Carmack-Altwies, who stepped back from prosecuting Baldwin's case in March 2023, appointed Johnson in court documents filed April 16 and obtained by Fox News Digital.

Johnson is a personal injury, wrongful death and civil rights attorney in New Mexico. The lawyer spoke to multiple outlets regarding Baldwin's case prior to her appointment, mostly giving her opinion on whether the actor would face charges.

Baldwin's team has filed to have his indictment dismissed. Baldwin was indicted on counts of involuntary manslaughter, negligent use of a firearm or, in the alternative, involuntary manslaughter without due caution or circumspection – on Jan. 19.

Baldwin's motion to dismiss argued that the prosecution had acted unethically and failed to present crucial evidence to a grand jury.

"Enough is enough," the court documents stated. "This is an abuse of the system, and an abuse of an innocent person whose rights have been trampled to the extreme."
